    About three years ago, I could get a bottle calf for $200 delivered. Now it is about $500. To raise it for a couple of years would not cost me too much but would cost the city consumer $$$$$$$$$$.
    Organic produce around here cost a lot. But you can get deer apples cheap. We make them into vinegar but if you wash them very well and cut them up, one could eat them. After Halloween, local pumpkins and squash are cheap to free.

    Even Aldis has items not on their shelves when I want them. But of course not all areas of the country are the same.
    Not as many young boys here work on the farm. I used to be able to hire them to stack hay. Now few want to do it nor probably know how. BIg machinery stacks big bales.
    Things are changing and the powers that be will feed us what they want to. No doubt about it.

    Fear is coming back up in me. Biden is trying a Universal gun ban without Congress. If Trump does not make it in, we are so screwed.
    I got an email today to have my state reps vote for a bill against cbdc using states rights to fight the federal gov't. See if your states don't have a similar bill in the works and fight for it. Keep calling your senators and congressmen to defund the UN and (which has been working on a ban against ammunition now that we fought a gun ban there, too). We need to fight any agreement with the WHO. It is going to be signed in April (?).
    Keep writing your reps!

    In prior years, maybe 3-4 bad gun bills got passed and hit the governor's desk here in Virginia. Our rights have forever made us a target. This year we anticipate 47 bad gun bills to hit the governor's desk (many of them outright unConstitutional), yet the Dems refused to entertain the 3 Get Tough On Actual Criminals bills introduced by the Republicans. The Dems are in full-blown Destroy Freedom mode. And they are intentionally putting Younkin in a spot.

    China couldn't do it without our help, selling them our farmland. Why do we allow any foreign nation to own our land anyway?

    I saw that about 2500 family farms are going out of business every month in the U.S. How sad that is.

    Some have been fighting this but a lot have been offered an amazing amount of money which they saw as a good thing. It would seem so until you find the money will be worthless and where can you find another property like the one you are selling for the same amount?
    Even for my little farm, I was offered quite a bit. I would have liked to find a place a little farther out but could not.
    But farming is hard work and the farm is your retirement if the kids don't want it.
    Even if there were a real estate crash, Someone once told me "a house is worth just a house. Money is questionable." People just don't get what the WEF is doing to them with Agenda's.
    And if they can't buy them out, the government will be able to force them out.
    I think it was Montana whose governor just sadly announced changes in the BLM (land management, not lives matter) rules. She is trying to fight this but not sure she can succeed. They are slowly pushing ranchers off federal land.
    Agenda 30 is to take 1/3 of all land out of use by private entitiies. Agenda 50 is to have 50% out...

    There are still plenty of farms and ranches in America. Yes, many were sold, but many were not. I have read up-to-date articles concerning today's farms and ranches and many are still going strong. Texas, Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, Kansas, North/South Dakota, Iowa, Indiana and others are still going pretty strong.

    That is a relief, @Cody Fousnaugh. I only know what I read, which can be different than the reality.

    Small family farms are going out of business. Factory farms are growing. You can do research on what the governor of Montana has been saying. Oregon is downright scary with government overreach even to the point of saying gardens have too big a carbon foot print. They are eliminating water rights to small farms since they can't outlaw farms themselves, yet.
    Yes, there are ranches and large farms still around. They do things slowly so as not to alarm. If Gates or the Chinese buy up huge tracts and keep renting them out, there are still large farms and ranches.

    By 2030 30% of US acreage is supposed to be removed from private use.
