I was fly fishing on the Black Foot Rez out side of Brownng, MT up on the high line . Big farming country up there. the other day. A Hutterite farmer drove up and and stated a conversation with me. Really nice fellow. He advised that he farmed 20,000 or so acres and planted chick peas, wheat, lentils and had a flock of 30,000 chickens laying organic eggs he sold to Costco. Anyway there is a really bad drought along the high line the past 2 years and he stated that probably no wheat this year. You could tell the soii was really dries and was cracked in appearance. And this is in spring where moisture is needed. He stated that he purchased fertilizer last fall and it has increased 400 per cent the past sx months and was almost impossible to find now. He also advised that the bird flu full has wiped out other Hutterite chicken egg farms in the area and up in Canada . He added that if the state detects bird flu within 5 miles radius of his chickens they will destroy his entire chicken operation to control the spread. The nearest bed flu he said detected was 8 miles away on a neighbor's farm
Good times

Ribka: Not much good news anywhere these days! Crime out of control, illegal alien hoards invading our country, george soros capering at will, teachers and professors have turned into mind controlling, brain washing, agenda driven propagandists, anti-American politicians and district attorneys showing up everywhere, inflation out of control, divided populace about to get at each others throats, senile and ineffective President, worse Vice President, putin running amok, china getting more and more evil every year, welfare rat children growing into drug dealers and murderers at an incredible rate, Federal Government out of control, national debt beyond incredible, and now that humble Hutterite rancher/farmer being hammered on multiple fronts and bizarre diseases (of man and animals!) showing up constantly anymore - WHAT next - I think I will go Varmint hunting? Any luck fishing? Drive defensively up there by the way! Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Yes the bird flu is getting close to some chicken houses )or I should reward poultry houses I'm not sure if it affects turkeys the same I assume it does.) In this area. And they are making them destroy all birds and they cannot spread the litter even it must be I guess burnt or incinerated or something I'm not sure what they're going to do with it have no stake in poultry farms. The one neighbor that had to destroy all of his birds and cannot spread the turkey litter which he normally does on it pretty large acreage of corn for this area so now he has to buy $1,000 a ton commercial fertilizer.

Very modern. Communism. Nobody owns anything, the colony does. So when they go to the hospital they get it free or cheap. And all that collective buying power let’s them gobble up land to farm with new equipment. Each colony is different. Some are really fûcking weird and distrustful, some are really nice.

Are people paying attention or is the average American so dumbed down by virtue signaling for BLM and Ukonazis that they don't care about the future?

The colonies up on the high line have all been really nice to me. I bird hunt on a lot of them. There's one down by Big Timber that s a little different. They have really good quality butter, hams, eggs, whole chickens, pork

The “Bird Flu” didn’t wipe out schit. Our lying, crooked government wiped them out.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
