Our area farmers can't afford the fuel prices when they were "good" as
compared to now. Many here have simply started raising cattle. Rice,
soybeans, sugercane and wheat can't produce a profit at the current market
price they bring...


Good! Maybe they will stop over-producing and allow the price to rise back
to a profitable level?

Oh, wait -- the Feds keep paying them tax money whether it's profitable to
till the land, or not.

Never mind....
