We mentioned the other day that a Bidenš¤” jackwagon called "Samantha Power" is very happy with the fertilizer shortage caused by Biden's War on Russia. She's happy because the Government will 'transition' farmers to 'organic' methods.
So how does "organic" work out?
Sri Lankan President Gotabaya Rajapaksa promised in his 2019 election campaign to transition the country’s farmers to organic agriculture over a period of 10 years. Last April, Rajapaksa’s government made good on that promise, imposing a nationwide ban on the importation and use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides and ordering the country’s 2 million farmers to go organic.
The result was brutal and swift. Against claims that organic methods can produce comparable yields to conventional farming, domestic rice production fell 20 percent in just the first six months. Sri Lanka, long self-sufficient in rice production, has been forced to import $450 million worth of rice even as domestic prices for this staple of the national diet surged by around 50 percent.
The ban also devastated the nation’s tea crop, its primary export and source of foreign exchange.--AOSHQ quoting Foreign Policy
"I'm here from the Government to help."
Not only a lie. A Very Deadly Lie.
And that is why we're getting a few beef cows along with chicken and pigs. Learning to be self sufficient so we don't depend on the government and what available in the store..
