Our Agricultural Production Shrinks

Did you know that, for the first time since the Republic was declared in 1776, the U.S. was a net importer of food in 2022? And, it looks like that will be true indefinitely into the future. This latest news, from last week (above), is more discouragement. 

We have too many in Washington and New York that believe "food comes from the grocery store"!

Since COVID, a number of companies have sought to bring their manufacturing back from China and have found the USA doesn't have the expertise anymore. Believe me, that can happen in ag -- especially since we are -- stupidly -- converting some of our best farmland from crops to solar energy farms. 

Producing inadequate food is, in my opinion, a major national security issue and should be treated as such.
