This man would know. He was the president of a wheat growers association.
Fix the money, fix many of these problems… not least of which is consolidation. nostr:note1zjt6pdcug43w654sfsus8gfplms9ujun5zvq3twdwyuy5qugl8psvpndf0
This is harder to say. Our system is robust so there may be price spikes but it is difficult to know for how long typically the cure for higher prices is higher prices-
But to go through
Wheat- globally wheat is doing fine plenty to go around so this will have little impact on consumers- if however another Ukraine style impact occurs wheat prices will likely rise.
Beef- we may enter a period of sustained higher prices. If beef is important to you it would be advisable to buy a quarter or a half for your own storage
Eggs- right now buying eggs is cheap and it means this is a great source of protein. While egg producers don’t want low prices if there are low prices they hope that demand surges (it likely will) which will even put prices
Water- this is a matter of hope and prayer… in the Midwest the water situation will likely (if you look at 100 year averages) even out over the next year or so… droughts have a way of causing more droughts so it’s something to be aware of but little one can do

Crazy things happening in ag right now:
1. Winter wheat out west is fucking toast- drought killed it,
2. the national cattle herd is as low as it’s been since the 60’s, ranchers are selling off heifers so it’s not coming back soon. Too expensive to truck in hay all the grass is dead.
3. Meat Packers are hinting they may shut down old facilities which could take beef supplies down by 5% or more sky rocketing beef prices, but obliterating the fats market. All those cattle ranchers are selling won’t have anywhere to go.
4. Wholesale egg prices drop from $5.00+ per dozen to below $0.97 a few weeks of this can be managed, but a month and we will see the little guys selling out…
5. Equipment prices up, input prices up, and a big part of the country is low on water.
What is something beautiful you noticed this week?
No this is stopping a federal reserve digital currency. Although federal law trumps state law it is a protection for citizens potentially

Where are you that you are saying good morning? I just put kids to bed in Saint Louis.

This is my crispy pizza dough recipe- I’ve been working on the exact amounts for about 7 weeks:
360 grams of bread flour
140 grams of semolina flour
8 grams of salt
10 grams of sugar
14 grams of active dry yeast (2 teaspoons)
30 grams of extra virgin olive oil
325 grams of water
Automatic bread makers are the most underrated appliance of a modern American kitchen.
The bread maker can allow you to eliminate hundreds of preservatives, additives and low grade oils from your diet.
The quality of your carbohydrates increases and your diet (if you can keep from eating too much) improves.
This is very difficult to do if you hand roll and bake the dough
Oh man now future Damus archeologists won’t understand your question:
