Beef will be outrageous before long...not sure the farmer will ever see any $ tho...I got a few that I plan on keeping regardless of what the markets doing...deer and fish is 75% of my protein anyway

I know there has to be some money made but i really believe farming is a lifestyle. Theres gona be good times and bad times but something inside you will drive you to keep going. If its all about the money, people will starve. Not everyone is a farmer. Some folks dont have a bit of farmer in them. But if you are a farmer, i would encourage you to do whatever it takes to keep going. Diversify, try new things. Find a way you can keep going. The enemy is trying to destroy us. Farmers have endured more than about any other group on earth, except maybe soldiers. Its not gona get easier, itll get harder. Endeavor to persevere. I know what its like to work months and make nothing. I know how it feels. But i would encourage you, if theres any way possible, get up and go again. When farmers quit farming, people start starving.

They are killing momma cows left and right out west Don’t forget cattle cause global warming so I wonder if it’s a part of their plan There will be a food shortage sooner than later

When farmers quit farming, people start starving. Most of the production doesnt come from your local good ol' boy or hippie farmer. It is a big time industry that controls the price of food. Most "farmers" are hobby farmers. Very few make a living from it. I have the numbers on my laptop for Missouri and it would amaze you how few "farms" are income producing. Point is... our production is already in the hands of a very small group. The small farmer is along for the ride. And outside of some smaller cattle farmers who have family land there isnt much money to be made in small operations. Row crop you better have 1000s of acres.

Cheap steak was $16 a pound here at Publix a few days ago. I ain't paying $16 a pound for ribeye. My stopping point is probably $12 a pound. If everyone would quit buying at a certain price, we could control the prices. This is why trucks are 60k. My stopping point is probably 30k or less for a vehicle. It's non sense. I agree 100%. In a capitalist economy, the consumer sets the price. If the consumer is not buying steaks at $16, Piggly Wiggly is not going to continue to put them on the shelf... they will lower the price or quit buying from the package plants. Then the package plants start lowering the price... but it all starts with the consumer.
