My fisherman neighbor was cut a federal 40k check two summers ago for being impacted by the "China Tariffs" Before you say fishermen feed the world, he targets Copper River Reds that start at 25 bucks and up retail. King crab, geoduck clams, sea cucs and urchin are all high end products, most with an asian market. Not feeding the masses. I have an issue with that.

This is not even good socialism.

Make even more sense when you can buy ethanol from Brazil for 10 cents/gallon.

Only the Government can regulate a profitable sector out of prosperity and then decide to subsidize it to waste money. LOL But then they gain control of it.

Yes, folks. This is how farm subsidies work. The gubmint acts as a go between to give the farmers your money to keep your prices low.

Kind of hard to wrap your head around that one and splain it to where it makes any sense.

I understand farmers lose crops to various things and need help from time to time. However, taking my money to give to farmers to keep my perceived prices lower at the grocery store only gives the politician power to look like the savior of farmers and consumers. It is such a sham.

I hear circus music.



Its not to benefit you-it is so people who have little money and dont pay taxes and vote for Joe can eat prime rib too.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

Nah, most of that money goes back to the politicians who passed it via donations.

The world needs farmers small and large,bottom line they need to get a decent price for there labor with a good crop.Case hit it on the nail,when my Dad farmed up untill 10 years ago the land was paid for and 90% of the equipment too.He farmed 700 acres and every year he would burrow money to put the crops in long story short most year it took about 100k gross to net 30K some years more many years less with a fair price for everything to help cover the input etc. a person should be able to net 40 to 60K for the about of time and know how,if you break it down by a hourly wage it would SUCK!!!!!That's my take on it other than our president does'nt have a clue on MANY MANY things.

I always say $6 corn is no good for anyone but me and only good for me a month or two at best. High corn means high everything. Cost of gain in the feed yards is terrible, close to $1/pound right now! Anhydrous was $400 last winter $1400-1500 now! Roundup was $15/gal now $65! I personally think it’s going to only get worse

This says to help independent meat processors, nothing about producers.
Biden outlined plans to distribute $1 billion from the coronavirus relief package to help independent meat processors expand. He also highlighted money to train workers in the industry and improve conditions, as well as issue new rules for meatpackers and labeling requirements for being designated a “Product of USA.”

I haven’t read the bill, but I agree 100% on labeling. It’s actually billions of pounds of beef imported, but that’s a moot point. I prefer to know where my food comes from, I can’t see why that as a requirement is a poor idea.

Well, rvsask don't feel alone. Danvee was right about one thing, and one thing only. We are going back to the futile system, and the futility of it is trying to communicate when people only hear what they want to hear. I'm not putting words in his mouth but I think he means feudal. As for the farm bill better get yourself a few Red Bull's and a good ag. Lawyer nobody has/can read that thing. The best you can do is head to the local USDA office and talk to the fellow in charge of your area of interest and hope he gets it right. Another day another fellow and you may get another opinion. I have never been able to wrap my head around the US importing beef, or lamb for that matter, but we do. Go figure. I see you are to the great white north you don't even have to do that, well good on you. Good luck with the queen in such matters.

What if you replaced the word "Farmer" with "trapper" and "Crops with "Traps" Not quite that kind of money for me but about the same percentage wise.

Case, like you guys we also import beef. As best I can understand it’s for the ground beef part of the industry, same with you guys. Not overly surprising, we’re both pretty overweight nations, more keen on fast food burgers and fries as opposed to locally produced foods.
