USA farmers are Tightening Belts!

Hamloc....The money got diverted to, "Science, Innovation, and Technology" so "WE" can all benefit. Through things like plant breeders rights, right? Excuse the sarcasm this morning...

Sorry Hamloc, my last post was intended for GOODRUM.

I guess 85% of us with cash flow problems should be grateful for our governments vision and protection of plant breeders rights , those guys would be in tuff shape without government support

I wonder what percent of farmers file an agristability/agriinvest application? Unless you're into fudging numbers, lots of info in the apps...

Farmaholic , what are you saying?

[farmaholic]

....that maybe not everyone is _______. I I've heard of people storing grain at other people's places. Inventory and production shortfalls.

Wonder how Broadacre made out...

[GOODRUM]

Gotcha , yea that would be the only way I can see actually getting anything , too bad

Those poor American farmers my only be able to buy the $25,000 drone instead of the $30,000 drone . Kinda like some Canadian farmers that may only be able to do 4 winter holidays than 5 .
Sorry , but these are the guys the piss and moan the most .

Hard to get a handle on amount of grain still on farms.
After last year, do not see open piles but do see some tarp covered temporary storage.
Own farm down a bit, confident we will empty by new crop.
Made mistakes in past years by cutting back on production at times of surplus and lower prices, will be at least another year before we plan that again.
