Well fields around me have been farmed for a 100 years easy…before these irrigation systems they did good enough. It’s just a way for wealthy people to become more wealthy. Screw everyone else. So if that’s what all this fuss is about, then yeah there should be shutoff times for them, or banned outright altogether. But then the farmers would whine and complain to no end and drove the food industry up even more. Anything to make more money.
Farmers don’t answer to the same rules as everyone else. They got 15 yr olds driving semi’s loaded to the brim with grain running people over out around me. No charges. Driving through town 15-20 mph over the speed limit, same kids. Massive trucks. Cops won’t give them tickets. They can’t apparently, not during harvest time.
Im in construction. So I’m around these farmers almost daily sometimes. ALL of them are broke. Driving a 120k diesel dually. Living in the 4,000 sq ft homes, on their 50 acres of house property. Every wife, if they don’t own a restaurant, they are managers or of that level over various businesses. Every child and grandchild drives 60k trucks with their 30k side by side on a trailer. I’m sick of farmers whining. They don’t live in this world like the rest of us do.
Bit of a rant. But I’m currently hot and tired typing this. Watching farmers dressed to their best getting lunch, with zero sweat stains visible. Like always. I’m kinda done with the ole” “bless our farmers” crap. They are nice guys tho. Just wish people told the truth nowadays.
Protect your property rights and you too can live comfortably… we have ceded too much power to government and corporations. They need to learn who the boss is.
Protecting property rights is exactly why many people around my area are upset with well systems drying up because of all the farmer irrigation systems. Many of us would like to see them gone, permanently. If they were used reasonably, perhaps with litigation passed to protect underground water supply, people would be less irritated at them. Ultimately God takes care of those in need who look to Him for care. And the rains have taken care of the crops very well these last two years.
You understood that perfectly. That was exactly my point. Any farmer I’ve ever talk to is FLAT BROKE! Everything is to expensive. And then your eyes will start lying to you apparently….or their full of it. Which they are.

If they are all broke, how are the kids driving the expensive trucks?
