US Farmers Are Facing The Worst Economic Downturn In At Least 50 Years Authored by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog, The agriculture industry in the United States is deeply broken. Farmers are the foundation of it all, but they are being financially squeezed from every direction. They are being squeezed by the giant monopolies that control the seeds, fertilizer and machinery that they need. And they are also being squeezed by the giant monopolies that purchase most of what they produce. Meanwhile, demand from overseas has dried up thanks to the global trade war. U.S. farmers really are facing a “perfect storm”, and as a result most farms are losing money and bankruptcies are surging. Most Americans have absolutely no idea how bad it has gotten. According to the president of the Nebraska Farmers Union, this is the worst economic downturn for farmers in at least 50 years… “We're in the middle of the worst economic downturn that I've seen in my 50 years,” John Hansen, t...

New EPA Proposal Would Restore About 50% Of Lost Biofuel Demand The White House is reviewing an EPA proposal that would make large refiners cover about half or less of the 1.1 billion gallons of biofuels exempted last month for small refineries, according to three sources familiar with the matter, according to Reuters/Yahoo. The plan, still under discussion, could leave roughly 550 million gallons of demand unmet, potentially boosting the supply of renewable fuel credits and pushing their price lower. Farm-state lawmakers and biofuel producers have been pressing for full restoration of lost demand. The oil industry, meanwhile, has resisted, warning of higher compliance costs. The EPA's approach is seen as a compromise to stabilize the credit market without overwhelming refiners. "The EPA is in the process of evaluating a range of options that strike an appropriate balance between obligations, reallocation, and other factors that will deliver for farmers, consumers and American energy dom...

Lantmännen has initiated a groundbreaking project to train search dogs to detect weeds that threaten seed production. The initiative, the first of its kind in Sweden, could pave the way for a more sustainable system for domestic forage seed production by reducing the need for herbicides and ensuring higher seed quality. Weed infestations pose a major challenge for farmers. Because many weeds closely resemble cultivated plants, they are nearly impossible to identify—especially at an early stage. This can result in entire harvests being discarded, causing significant financial losses. “This...
