@WallStreetApes everybody can quit being lazy and learn to grow their own food. You really don't need that many products to survive and have a healthier diet. vegetables and fruits during the summer meat, and grains during the winter... it's not that hard
@WallStreetApes Like everything else he touches Biden is destroying the farm industry. 👎🏼
@WallStreetApes Our farm workers to harvest we fly here through a government program. We must pay them a certain rate, provide housing, transportation. If they drive anything with a motor, tractor included, they must receive 3.00 more per hour. Their housing must be inspected and approved.
@WallStreetApes We use a lot of hand tools to mitigate fuel expenses; we walk & bicycle around the farm as much as possible & we have our buyers picking up produce directly from the farm. Farm to consumer is the model we need to continue to build & sustain.
@WallStreetApes They’re doing this on purpose to wipe out the food supply. We need to stop them
You know those apple orchards you shared videos of? I'm not sure if they were Etters or Boyers. It's getting much worse. Thousands of acres are being pushed out. Biden stopped the school lunch apple program and growers abd packers cannot eat them. A friend of mine is still sitting on 40,000 bushel he has no sale for. Grocery stores aren't selling as many, Mothers cannot afford them. It's sad.
@WallStreetApes Joe Biden is the worst thing to happen to this country
@WallStreetApes 🇺🇸🌟❤️🌟🇺🇸 This is killing the small farmers ..in this country.. Just the price of hay now .. to feed their stock is almost out of reach.. Again designed .. regulations put in by Biden was bad enough .. these prices are killing them..
@WallStreetApes Farmers are selling their land to investors and putting houses up everywhere. This is intentional and all by design. Meanwhile, Bill Gates and his Chinese friends are also purchasing land because they know the cost to farm has now became unprofitable for the small guys.
