Any proof of this? Maybe like the letter from multiple farmers? Government agency which sent the letters confirming? Anything, other than this video on tiktok?
This is why I'm having a hard time taking these warnings seriously. Every rumor I've heard about farmers destroying crops is based on some sketchy video or blog post. Not that I trust the corporate media to ever report on something like this, but if the crop destruction was as widespread as claimed, then surely there must be more evidence out there than the same viral videos posted by some randoms.
That said, it's good advice in general to stock up on food and supplies for emergencies. We all saw the empty grocery shelves last March.
The feds have paid farmers not to plant to artificially raise prices for a long time. They supposedly do it in an effort to keep farmers in business for national security. This is nothing new. There are a lot of subsidies in growing corn. They keep a lot of farmers in business with subsidies and the big ones can make a lot of money. The USDA needs its budget severely cut, especially since the majority of it goes to food stamps.
I haven’t heard about being paid to destroy crops but I’ve never raised corn or known anyone that has. I don’t believe the part about prices being $0.35 lower because you won’t sell to the feds. That’s not how this works.

My proof is this is what commies always do. Starve you into submission.
Yeah, same playbook, different century.
In other words - no. No evidence. Trust me bro...
Go do your own research if you don't believe it, etc.
