I don't think enough people right now are paying attention to the food crisis we're brewing in Ukraine etc.  Those guys have to plant in the next monthish over there to have a '22 crop. 

The Ukraine is as big of a factor as the entire USA midwest in terms of human's having food. 

Not just the food production crisis but also the restricted exports now of 45% of the world's potash supply coming from the Uralkali Cartel (Russia and Belarus).  Congrats Canadian potash conglomerates, your dream came through.  You suppressed prices so no new projects could be built, then the other half of the world's supply decided to set the world on fire, making you by far the preferred providers of the greatest at risk fertilizer component.  

Hopefully this will spur more modular designs of potash facilities like my friends over at Gensource Potash (good stock to keep your eye on).  

The world isn't ready for a food crisis.  We don't have stockpiles, we don't have fertilizer for this year's crop in America let alone Ukraine.  We don't have excess funds with unsupported wage increases.  This whole thing is a tea kettle on an uncontrolled flame. 

We thought Trumps approval rating sucked lol.  He hit the all time low right after 1/6/21 at 34%.  Can Biden lower the bar even more? Quinnipiac has him at 38% last week.  If you're in favor of Democratic ideas you'd better get it done now because '22 elections are not going to be kind. 

So here comes the tinfoil...the world's corn and bean genetics leaders have been pushing all the major producers to roundup ready hybrids for the last decade,  and now suddenly the world's leader in roundup production ( china) has a shortage in the same year where fuel reaches record highs, making conventional weed control ( tilage) cost prohibitive.   Seems to be paving the way for more farm failures so some non farmer rich fucks can move in and buy up cheap farm land,  take the tax breaks and enroll it into more govt subsidized programs that their campaign dollars pay to create and support.   There's a reason that bill gates is the largest farmer in America.   There's a lot of things we can't live without and food commodities aren't one of them.  Thank God Bill isn't interested in Netflix,    right?

There's enough other herbicides for corn/beans.  I know a bunch of my college friends have gone back to planting conventional corn/beans because the yield gains vs cost to produce wasn't in their favor.  While input costs are out of sight right now.  Fertilizer 5x, fuel 2x etc the commodities themselves remain at elevated rates.  Its what happens when grain prices crash yet inputs do not?

China didn't make roundup because they had the Olympics and wanted you to see through the smog.
