Fertilizer shortage could be catastrophic

[Hawkeye10]

The G-20 must lead by example and call on other countries to avoid counterproductive actions, such as stockpiling food and key supplies, and imposing export restrictions that could “distort markets and further drive up prices,” U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said at the same discussion.

Though in the end they wont care about markets, the government will buy what they want at whatever price they decide and/or take what they want and ship it out of the country.

History is very clear on what happens during famines, though most Americans are completely ignorant.

People are beginning, just beginning, to figure out that we are so Fucked on Food.

You heard it from me on JPP first, likely the first anywhere.

I am right a high percentage of the time.

The ultimate proof of education.

Suck It.

If by a high percentage you mean zero, then yes. Not one thing you've predicted has come to pass. NOT. ONE.

Suck it.

The cost of food is really going to jump now...cheap food is over....restaurants are going to get hammered anew.

The global warming cranks are probably happy to see this next crisis.

OTOH....

Maybe spoiled Americans will be forced to stop wasting so many tons of food every year because they're too stupid and lazy-ass to keep and reuse leftovers.

And maybe stores will stop chucking perfectly good food in dumpsters because it's past the "Best by" date.

If we'd stop wasting so much food there'd be no problem.

America is the most wasteful country on Earth.

You were warned, dont forget that part.

Or produce if it has a blemish

There are always doomsayers, Hawk. Not sayin' you are wrong.

Prepper shows and forums have been predicting famine and collapse of civilization for a long time. And now we have the aristocracy elites purposefully decivilizing humanity to take power away from the peasantry ... and reserve luxury, tech, and food only for the elite bluebloods.

The drought and fertilizer problem is going to cause crop failures. Be smart and buy grain products now.

Yep, many people already do some emergency preparedness for events like hurricanes, etc.. This gov't engineered food shortage may last longer than a few weeks.

Good advice to stock up on some long term survival foods.

I like instant oatmeal and instant mashed potatoes because you don't have to cook them. Which is good because you may not have the fuel to heat food.

 

[Bigdog]

Trying to figure out if you are kidding or just plain ignorant. Are you suggesting that farmers throw dead fish out in their fields to replace the hundreds of tons of fertilizer they lay down annually?

He's just plain stupid.

If you're starving, you're better off eating the fish!

Yep, I'm always cognizant of the year 1816, "the year without a Summer", mostly caused by the Tambora eruption.

But a lot of the famines of the 20th century were engineered by Big Gov't Socialists like Stalin and Pol Pot, ... and today it's the wokies.

The Arab Spring was caused by food shortages, which were in turn caused by the evil fucking Leftist nazi bastards turning food crops into gas.

 

[Earl]

With all the Chickenshit Bullshit you Trumptards are spreading around- We should have a surplus on Fertilizer for decades to come!

This is brilliant, Gecko.

Do you have any more gems?

It is...and it's happening in Europe right now. This isn't a natural famine. It's caused by governments. Such governments are going to be on the wrong side of history.

 

[Into the Night]

If by a high percentage you mean zero, then yes. Not one thing you've predicted has come to pass. NOT. ONE.

Suck it.

It's already happening in Europe.

If you want to eat out of the dumpster, be my guest.

Uh...you heat the water for both oatmeal and mashed potatoes. You also have to cook mashed potatoes..even the instant variety.
Obviously, you have limited experience in cooking.

That the Western global elites dont want us eating good food to "save the planet", and have instituted tyranny to bring this about, means that food problems were coming even before the gross mismanagement set in. These fuckers intend to cut the meat Americans eat by something 90%, this is coming unless we but them down in a rebellion, which is not likely now that America is the land of the ignorant cowards.

Like in the ancient days of socialism, ... meat is reserved for the king and the royal court.

We can start by voting in people who support 'school choice'.

They certainly do intend to make us serfs.
