I have heard that dairy farmers in the UK have had similar issues - tipping away gallons of milk every day. It happens because they had contracts with restaurants and the demand fell to zero.

However, hasn't someone somewhere worked out that we are still the same number of people and we still need to eat? All that has happened is that we need the food in the shops and not in the restaurants.

Maybe I could be a rocket scientist after all!

Why don't they give the food away for free?

I can see there could be issues if the farm is a long way from civilisation and they have 1,000 gallon tanks of milk with only a connection for a milk tanker.
