Government payments will always incentives farmers to produce a surplus, a surplus will always produce cheap food. Just like government assistance incentives able workers to not seek a job. Government stupidity at its finest.
So how much per bushel do you get paid to produce that surplus? How many fewer bushels would you produce if there were no govt payments?
If told your landlords today that you decided not to farm this year, how hard would it be for them to find replacement tenants?
If 5% of grain farmers quit today, what percentage of their acres wouldn't be in production this year? (here, we haven't started planting yet. Maybe I should say if they quit on February 1st, to be before planting actually starts.)
How do the government payments in place today actually incentive farmers to produce surplus? | |
