Here is their plan: Check out Food Chain Reaction a DS org. A Global Food Security Game is a simulation and role-playing exercise intended to improve understanding of how governments, institutions, and private sector interests might interact to address a crisis in the global food system. The scenario is set five years from today in a world where population growth, rapid urbanization, extreme weather, and political crises combine to threaten global food security.
The game’s players—high-level decision makers representing nations, international institutions, and the private sector—will collaborate, negotiate, make decisions, and confront tradeoffs while dealing with a chain reaction of consequences resulting from their actions.
How can new preppers get ready? I heard meat will be shortages to stock up and buy extra freezer. now land for garden i have a deck. any ideas welcome. Rice is going up and easy to store long term.

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.

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.
