Will There Be Famine?
 
Is America headed for famine? With the stunning amount of rain we have had will the farmers be able to get out enough to falling into widespread shortages and skyrocketing prices?

Have anymore information. I am still praying the same prices I paid last year. Some increases. But I'm a meat eater.

That rain wiped out a huge portion of the cattle market. Prices have already started going up in these parts because of it.

"The farmers" are primarily large agribusiness concerns, many owned by the Chinese military through front companies, many others also foreign owned.

This thread made me hungry. I'm cooking up fired beef Ramen, with Nori. :)

How much food do we throw away a year? Anyone know?

I have read or seen videos where people are saying the rain this year was the most in American history. That only a small part of the usual yield of crops will be harvested this year. That over time this will be a great disaster.

Many farmers they say have decided they will not be able to plant anything.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_famines read this, do you think that the United State Famine will be as bad as some of these? Give me your thoughts please.

Rather wide ranging facts on some. 27000-1,500,000 Bangledesh 1974. If our estimate is that broad of a range in modern times I think it shows that the ancient numbers may not be real exact. May be more may be less.

But if we DO have a famine in the future obviously it COULD be as bad as any other. Plenty of variables. It's not part of my foundation doctrine to say THERE WILL BE A FAMINE in America. If we do it could be minor compared to some of those. Nonetheless since Im talking about the time in which we live ANY famine in our country would be devastating.

Im just asking around. Altho Jesus DID SAY there would be famines before his coming so that makes it interesting speculation.

This is reasonable

Like the worldwide famine in Acts 11:28.

Certainly. I'm sure there was discussion over that.
