The Federal #FarmPolicy Trap: Why Some #Farmers Are Stuck Raising #Crops That No Longer Thrive

Some farmers keep growing in flood- and drought-prone fields because subsidies soften the losses, while federal programs meant to help them change course have been underfunded and mired in bureaucracy. Under Trump, those programs may weaken further.
Trump's first 100 days back in office have sparked major concerns over food security, farm policy, and fairness. Here's what advocates and experts are saying!

Guess what? The FTC found in March that “large grocers took advantage of pandemic supply chain disruptions”
But the @washingtonpost
editorial board thinks grocery stores have zippo inflation impact.
In an editorial criticizing Vice President Kamala Harris for her speech on Friday, the Washington Post claimed that it’s “hard to see how groceries” qualify as a perpetrator of “excessive” profits.
The food system is broken, whether the Washington Post editorial board thinks so or not.
Democracy dies in willful ignorance.
