Most of it is dairy cattle beef. It really sucks.
Our date is about a year old and now I'm hoping I can get 2 in instead of just the 1.. I'm seriously looking at putting up a small building and processing our own meats.. This morning Tucker says grocery shelves are going to look like depression times.. I need to find some more wheat for the wheat grinder I bought here sometime back.. Damn feed stores don't carry feed wheat anymore.. How low can we go ?
You should be able to buy feed wheat at any elevator. At least you can around here.
"should" I know but it's treated seed wheat I've come across so far.. Maybe here soon.. Every weekend I buy 15% calf grower for the 2 steers we have put up, every weekend there's been a price increase..
Had a couple here this morning for chicks, he was from Russia and she was from Siberia.. Interesting visit it was.. They have 17 acres between Jones and Luther and want chicks every month.. I had them lol with my opinions on the condition of the country and world in general.. They too are preparing for what may come as they've seen what we haven't "yet"..

Hmm. I guess maybe I should peddle my feed wheat at a price mark up.
that is interesting. i thought the seed security act or whatever it is called shut that all down??? it did around here anyway. seems that the monsanto companies etc decided to lobby congress and make the taxpayer pay to protect their patented crops. so the usda just made it illegal for a farmer to sell his wheat without paying monsanto for permission. just because there might be a smidge of their genetics in the bin.
Got a link?
no sorry i don't and i am unsure of the name of the act or law. this all happened back in the 1990's late if i remember correctly. i will look and see if i can figure it out but probably not much link wise because of the time frame and the internet at the time wasn't like it is now.
i think it would be best to just talk to a farmer and see if he will let you fill some buckets right out of the combine. remember that it will have chaff and bugs and stuff in it. i usually get a couple hundred pounds of peas this way. but i trade sand plum jelly for the favor. grin
Correct. Seed dealers have the seed market sewed up tight. As earlier stated you have to sign away your life now for wheat seed, and certify that you won't use your harvest for seed wheat the following season.
Everybody signs it, but I'm sure there are some with grain bins that may or may not keep a truck load or two.
