Epic Economist Farm || Food Shortages Will Get A Lot Worse As Fears Of A Dark Winter
The pain never stops. If you think that the empty shelves we're seeing are quite distressing and that food prices are extremely expensive right now, just wait until the winter begins. The food crisis that is unfolding before our eyes is getting worse by the day. Global food supplies were already tight in the past few years, but the food that wasn't produced in 2022 means that we're going to be hit by even harder challenges in the next few months. At this point, worldwide fertilizer prices have quadrupled, several countries started banning exports of essential commodities, tens of millions of chickens and turkeys have disappeared from the system, our domestic beef cattle herd has dramatically shrunk, and crazy weather patterns have resulted in the destruction of millions of acres of crops all over the planet.
While rich countries will continue to face shortages and higher food prices, in more vulnerable countries, people are going to get desperate. "Fields are not being planted," emphasized Theo de Jager, the president of the World Farmers' Organisation. "I"m not so sure it's possible to avoid a food crisis. Farmers need peace," de Jager said.
We haven’t even seen the worst of food shortages and price increases yet, but America’s food banks are already reaching a breaking point. All over the country, food banks are struggling to keep up with the increased demand they’re experiencing. Feeding America, one of the nation’s largest charities, with over 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries, reported 85 percent of their food banks saw increased demand for food assistance. Their President and Chief Operating Officer Katie Fitzgerald says the organization is already dipping into emergency reserves, switching to cheaper products, limiting how often people can visit or how much food they can get, and "stretching their inventory to be able to meet more people's needs.
"Our experience is that this rise in food and fuel costs are creating just as precarious a situation for people who are trying to feed their families as was the case during the pandemic. Inflation is devastating to the budgets of families, seniors, and people just barely getting by, driving more and more of them to food banks and food pantries,” Fitzgerald says. “The problem we’re seeing is that food banks are not immune to these inflationary pressures. So, while they’re dealing with longer lines at distributions, they face soaring costs and other challenges to their operations,” she added. A Feeding America survey found that inflation and supply chain issues are greatly affecting food banks, with 70% of their members reporting donations of food have decreased while operating costs have risen 95%.
This is a confluence of many disasters hitting our food supply chains all at once, and the most worrying part is that experts say we haven't seen the worst of it yet. This winter is going to be exceedingly difficult for all of us. In this video, we compiled signs that show us just how bad things are about to get.

Impact of Inflation and Economic Policy on U.S. Farmers #Part2
Farming in America has never been so expensive. Rising energy costs also mean farmers are losing money running tractors and sprayers by hand. More expensive agricultural inputs such as fertilizers and chemicals are also putting pressure on profit margins. 4,444 months before the US midterm elections, President Joe Biden signed the anti-inflation bill into law. Part of the bill was aimed at helping farmers weather the current economic crisis and making climate-sensitive sectors more resilient. The bill allocates him $20 billion to support farmers' climate-friendly farming practices. It also allocates $3.1 billion to the USDA to help struggling farmers.
Despite promises to farmers, many of them remain staunch Republicans in this campaign. Many believe that Biden's political stance, in particular, led to the price crisis in the first place. Filmed in collaboration with Dakote News Now, this story takes us to the important agricultural state of South Dakota. The sector is worth his $32 billion to South Dakota's economy, representing almost a third of the state's total economic output.

Modern Aeroponics Potato Farming Part 2
Modern farming method is growing potatoes using aeroponics. Aeroponic growing is a soilless method where plants are grown, supported at the top, with their roots hanging into a box. A solution of nutrients mixed in water is periodically pumped into the box and misted onto the hanging roots. The roots stay hydrated and absorb their nutrients without having to stay suspended in soil or water.

The amazing people that invented these machines to make our lives better.
A hundred and fifty years ago, making tools for farm equipment required immense production, and this led to a spike in overall farm production. Nowadays, making tools for farm equipment requires far less production, and has very little effect on overall farm production. This is because a small increase in technology reduces the time it takes to produce a finished object, rather than increasing its overall size.

Sugarcane cutting
sugarcane loading traditional tractor with Cow
In India. Cows are usually used to pull a series of sugarcane lorries from the temporary field path to the main route. Temporary lines are usually only installed at the time of harvesting/cutting sugar cane. The use of cows is considered safer when passing through field rails that are installed not as solid as the rails on the main line.

Its network of farms “essentially communicate using Bowery’s software.” according to the company, and benefits from the collective intelligence of 2+ years of data.”
