Ernie,

I don't know just how good or bad shape the Ag industry in this state is, but we used to have 3 dairies up here and now we have none. Also gone are the strawberry fields, much of the ranch land, and much of the walnut and other type trees. My cousin in Arkansas has 2 farms and leases another and he told me they had started saving and storing a lot of what they raise as the market is down so much he can't even sell beef cattle for what it costs to feed them. I believe that I once read some time ago that the next real major war would not be over ideologies and such but over food as the world population keeps growing and the ability to produce food declines. So maybe you had better buy a tractor and get busy on building your pill box for defense.

Ron
