Chickpeas

[the big wheel]

Oh my God. It's not about over production in India, check what percent of their population is starving? At the same time they have a growing affluent richer sector. 2 very different growing parts. The divide of those that have and those that don't have is creating this problem of starving and living like kings.
The cure for farmers problems is when more can afford our product and costs of producing are lower.

Why are our chemicals and fertilizers so expensive? Why is equipment and land so expensive relative to all
The people that are starving?
look at the cost of fuel? Look at the cost of sask crop insurance premium in relation. To the poor coverages and all the ways people have suggested on here they get out of paying for that coverage.
At the same time our government has taken money out of crop insurance to pay for their other debts?!??

We all keep trying to support our favourite political party by jabbing at the stupid things the other one does to hurt us farmers when the reality is we have no party working for farmers interests anymore and we are fools to think otherwise.

A big part of the sudden over supply of food in India is their current government has made the poor poorer there reversing a lot of the progress made over the past 20 years. A a result demand has weakened and the economy in general, causing the government to look for other revenue sources like import tariffs. So called currency reform was a big part of this. T

If there are more people starving and can’t afford the food in India then the govt should expect riots and worse. Didn’t a government there lose a election once due to high i onion prices?

Commodities are cycles. Eastern Europe, Russia etc will get into soy next, Way easier, better margins and China will help them, and Putin wants to help them.
