Arkansas joins Georgia in “bird flu” emergency. Note exemption based on faulty PCR test, which forces people to test their birds, ensuring the “outbreak” will continue to grow via false positives.

ie They are now using the COVID “testdemic” script to destroy animal agriculture. Heavens to Betsy, man.


“Under the emergency rule, it is prohibited to exhibit poultry and domestic waterfowl or move poultry or domestic waterfowl from or within an affected area.

“Poultry and waterfowl cannot be sold, bartered, traded, auctioned, or given away at fairs, swap meets, auctions, flea markets, and similar events and locations within an affected area.

“Poultry with commuter agreements or premovement avian influenza testing by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) or antigen capture are exempt from this provision.”

South Europe fears livestock culls as Ukraine conflict prompts feed shortage

Ukraine is a major global supplier of animal feed, stocks of which are falling fast across import-reliant southern Europe. With Hungary, Serbia and Moldova also banning exports as they safeguard their own supplies, costs for farms like Ferrari's have spiked, threatening their future. Many face culling animals if the situation doesn't improve quickly.

"I hear growing reports of farmers slaughtering their animals, but I want to avoid that," said Elisabetta Quaini, who keeps 1,300 cows for beef and milk production on her farm in Lombardy, northern Italy. "I'm determined to keep going, but I am very worried."

"It's not just corn, it's also soya and numerous by-products that are hard to find. There is a tremendous fight to get hold of what is available."

Michele Liverini, vice-president of livestock feed producer Mangimi Liverini S.p.A., said if dairy cows were slaughtered it would take seven to eight years to build up a barn to produce milk again.

Bread prices in Poland could quadruple

Supply disruptions from Russia and Ukraine, which account for 30% of the world’s wheat exports and 20% of corn exports, have been driving up global food prices. In Poland, bread costs may quadruple by the end of this year, according to the head of the opposition Civic Platform party, former Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

“The fate of all Polish families to a large extent this year depends on how you manage to help the Polish farmers,”

European farmers have been staging mass protests over exploding prices for energy and other critical commodities like fertilizers. The German Farmers Association has warned that bread could soon cost €10.

Even as Biden and Trudeau announce food shortages, farmers are being paid to STOP farming. Chickens are now "illegal animals" in more municipalities, requiring a permit, "due to bird flu." The EU is culling livestock as they run out of animal feed, and the Netherlands is seriously considering a meat tax. -- And yet, there is a resurgence of regenerative agriculture and community victory gardens, as people realize it is UP TO US to feed our families going forward!

Christian breaks down the latest developments in the Food Wars in this Ice Age Farmer broadcast.

And overnight, food prices are rising up to 50% in Germany. It’s happening fast:

“German retailer Aldi Nord will raise its prices by an average of 20-50% due to an increase in production costs, local media reported on Sunday.
From Monday onwards, meat, sausage products, and butter will be "significantly more expensive," a company spokesman told German press agency DPA, adding that the price hikes in various products were necessary due to the rise in manufacturing costs.

Why are Billionaires so interested in owning all seed genetics? Total takeover of not just food, but the whole ecosystem - seeds are being genetically modified to sequester carbon!

Bezos fund invests in Gates-funded CGIAR’s “FutureSeeds” seed bank:

“CGIAR calls these gene banks, which store seeds, seedlings, and tissue containing genetic information, “critical to achieving food and nutrition security worldwide.” The new funds will support the gene bank and climate change mitigation science that emphasizes carbon sequestration using the roots systems of plants, according to CGIAR. “

Expect food prices to continue to rise:

Crop production in Ukraine this year could be down anywhere from 20% to 80%, significant,” he said. European farmers have been reducing fertilizer application rates and are adjusting the way they use the products.

“What it means is that we’re going to see lower yields going into the year ahead, so there’s going to be less grain as we come out of this growing season, and therefore high grain prices going over into 2023,” Claxton said.

RUSSIA: “Food is our weapon!”

“It so happened that the food security of many countries depends on our supplies,” the Russian official wrote. “It turns out that our food is our quiet weapon. Quiet but ominous.”

“We will not supply our products and agricultural products to our enemies…”

The ex-President’s comments come only a day after the Russian government put limits on sunflower oil exports, as well as outright banned the export of sunflower seeds and rapeseed.

European food companies are STOPPING PRODUCTION. Even the people who think food comes from the supermarket should be raising their eyebrows and STARTING GARDENS at this point!

Rising costs force one in three food manufacturers to reduce production

If food retailers do not accept price increases, one in three food companies may reduce or stop production. The unprecedented cost increases for energy, raw materials and packaging are undermining the profitability of food producers.

Many food manufacturers run into serious financial problems and are forced to shut down production lines if supermarkets do not respond to their demand for price increases, warns the federation of the Belgian food industry (Fevia). One manufacturer in three has already or plans to reduce production.

electricity bills have doubled in one year, and those for gas have even tripled. Commodity prices also peak: wheat and maize became 50% more expensive, eggs 27%, sunflower oil 40%. Cardboard for packaging now costs 25% more, plastic 30%.”

Within two weeks, we may have to shut down a quarter of our production lines,” says Colruyt CEO Jean-Luc Colon
