Some GMO farms SHOULD be shut down
Dangerous crops
POISONED soil.
Quite sure REAL Farmers are protected and in some ways WORSHIPPED by the White Hats. Farmers deserve worship, not entertainers and sports clowns. GOOD teachers deserve a special place in our hearts as well.. First responders; GOOD men in Blue TOO

I work in the produce industry in California.
In our local county we supply a large amount of lettuce, romaine, broccoli, cauliflower, sprouts, salad mixes ECT.
I'm not seeing any of the things mentioned above at all.
The food service customers have dropped their sales by 70% 3 weeks ago, but this week they were down 40%
Significantly off, but the sales are improving steadily in these sector of our business. Food service = schools, restaurants, hospitals, prisons, sporting events ECT.
The retail side of our business has made up for the losses we have seen in food service. Costco, Publix, Target, Kroger ECT.
We are a large grower here, and there are 6 to 7 others like us here.

Right from the mouth of my Amish neighbor today. Chicken farmers are gassing their flocks because there is no place to process them. Dairy farmers are dumping half of their milk down drains. Dairy farmers already have a narrow margin so this will put many out of business.

I am a muslim immigrant and own many head of sheep which I have been selling one at a time to many of my neighbors which they slaughter to feed their family.
I still have a few left and will also sell all of these except one, which is my girlfriend.
