1
00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 1: And now for a moment of clarity.

2
00:00:06,639 --> 00:00:08,800
Speaker 2: Point about the farmers, to put them in the center

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:10,759
of the shape. Yes, get to the farmers.

4
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:11,359
Speaker 1: This was good.

5
00:00:11,439 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 2: Grain World Magazine from the editor, Fuel and fertilizer. Global

6
00:00:15,359 --> 00:00:18,199
grain price producers in twenty twenty six are focused on

7
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,920
two f words that are aren't obscene, but their rise

8
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,120
and costs are enough to make them curse as they

9
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,000
see their profit margin strength or in some cases completely disappear.

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:32,840
Fertilizer and fuel inputs that are essential to maximizing agricultural production,

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,159
have become so expensive that many of the world's farmers

12
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:39,320
are either cutting back on applications to their crops or

13
00:00:39,399 --> 00:00:41,759
not applying them at all at all, And according to

14
00:00:41,799 --> 00:00:45,240
a nationwide survey by the American Farm Bureau Federation, approxially

15
00:00:45,399 --> 00:00:49,159
seventy percent of US farmers cannot afford all the fertilizer

16
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,600
they need for their crops America. If a farmer can't

17
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,679
afford a fertilizer for the crops, guess what you may

18
00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:59,079
not be eaten in three or four months. That's the

19
00:00:59,119 --> 00:01:02,159
reality here. I didn't think about that, right, So I

20
00:01:02,159 --> 00:01:03,799
mean break it down for us.

21
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,560
Speaker 1: When the economy is going well, the American public got

22
00:01:06,599 --> 00:01:08,480
a very high threshold for a lot of the nonsense,

23
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:10,959
and when it is not going well, like right now,

24
00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:13,879
that nonsense compounds. And I go back to you know,

25
00:01:13,879 --> 00:01:16,719
his Meet the Press interview where he faced some challenging

26
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:20,640
questions and quit midway through and left. Wasn't fighting with

27
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,560
the media. He does that all the time. But when

28
00:01:22,599 --> 00:01:26,599
things get tough, he's quitting. Right now, there's no economic agenda.

29
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:30,040
Right now he has lost control about ending the war

30
00:01:30,079 --> 00:01:33,719
with Iran. So it's this notion of when you have

31
00:01:33,879 --> 00:01:36,239
no vision, he has just gone to pure line of

32
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:41,280
sight speech after unrelated speech, rambling me about fountains, you know,

33
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:45,599
the beautification of DC. He is living in a DC

34
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,319
bubble while the rest of America is again quite upset

35
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,159
about the state of this economy and.
