Harvesting in a trade war: U.S. crops rot as storage costs soar
(Reuters) - U.S. farmers finishing their harvests are facing a big
problem - where to put the mountain of grain they cannot sell to Chinese buyers. https://uk.reuters.com/article/us-us...-idUKKCN1NQ0GA "trade wars are easy to win" I wonder who said that. -- Bod |

Did you miss this part of the article you linked? "The trade war has only exacerbated the strain on storage, which has been a persistent problem in recent years due largely to a worldwide oversupply of grains." Or maybe the world is literally sick of GMO corn and soy beans marinated in carcinogenic chemicals? Got cancer yet? FWIW, the organic farmers in our county can't keep up with demand. |

Wow, a hippie that's a trumpet? That's a new one. And your point here is dumb as usual. As if Trump making an existing problem much worse makes it right and OK. The big problem with humans and grains isn't whether they are GMO or not, it's that we're eating refined grains in abundance and have the obesity and diabetes rates that go with it. |

Trump can just give the farmers another $6 bil in welfare, using borrowed money. Ironic that the Chinese govt is among the buyers of US debt. We could be selling them grains for cash, instead Trump is selling them bonds and giving the farmers welfare. That's the new Amerika. |

So farmers produced tons of toxic garbage food no one wants and you blame it on Trump? Maybe these cry-baby farmers should produce food someone actually wants to eat? FWIW, the smart farmers in my county are going organic and they're too busy counting their money to worry about trade tariffs. Even the non-organic grass-fed pasture-raised non-factory farms are doing great. |

So farmers produced tons of toxic garbage food no one wants and you blame it on Trump? Maybe these cry-baby farmers should produce food someone actually wants to eat? The Chinese were buying those crops, ****wit, until TRUMP started his trade war and put TARIFFS on China. China responded by tariffing US soybeans so shipments to China declined and the farmers are stuck with crop. See how that works? No, of course not, you're another trumptard. Even Trump acknowledges it, he's giving billions in borrowed money that the taxpayers are on the hook for as welfare for millionaire farmers. Some of it is going to foreign owned companies too, including China and Brazil. Wise up. FWIW, the smart farmers in my county are going organic and they're too busy counting their money to worry about trade tariffs. Even the non-organic grass-fed pasture-raised non-factory farms are doing great. Irrelevant. Organic is a small fraction of the market. It's like saying Cadillacs are selling so it doesn't matter that Trump screwed the other 95% of the vehicle market. Wise up, you're just representing for trumptards. |
