My neighbor on the adjoining farm tried to get his tobacco in & mother nature screwed him over. What was he suppose to do lose all the chemcial, fertilize, seed money ect. (which none are even close to being cheap) that he invested & still bush hog it down? Kind of hard to make farm payments like that ain't it? Seriously man you need to think sometimes (unless of course you have experience in the very thing you're talking about) & see the big picture before laying blame on everone for everything you deem so wrong in your mind.
He's never been hungry nor has he ever been in a profession where you have to pay what others want for their product then if Mother Nature decides to let you have a harvestable product you have no choice in how much you will receive for it. If this wasn't the case he would not be so quick to condemn the ones that feed him.
