To be fair, killing farming in the USA wasn't a difficult task. Most countries importing any American food products have had major restrictions on them for years due to safety and hygiene concerns. The EU, for instance, pretty much only imported some soy and grain, because anything else doesn't meet our quality standards. There only had to be a single minor inconvenience here to end the imports from the USA.

And in all honesty - wonderful news for Europeans. I don't think any of us will miss American products. Personally I'll happily pay a tiny bit more for soy from Brazil or China.

What a bunch of welfare queens. They should have planted crops people want to buy.

I would MUCH rather LITERALLY LOSE MY ENTIRE INDUSTRY AND WAY OF LIFE then to have ONE Trans Kid NOT feel suicidal!

-LITERALLY all Republican Voters!

Americans are learning the hard way that elections have consequences, and I’m loving it. Sadly, most still won’t learn. I said it before and I’ll continue to say it that Trump, Elon and their lackies are anarchists. They are destroying the government because they hate government (because it gets in their way) and they’re not going to put any of it back. He’ll be gone and we’ll have some broken, ghetto, incompetent government that can’t put the pieces back together and it’s what we’ll be stuck with for generations to come while other countries progress.

When this shitshow is over It would be nice if we could reconstruct our farming practices to focus more small local and sustainable farming instead of corporate conglomerates that damage our environment and wipe out biodiversity.

Big thanks from Brasil. Our soy exports are up like 30%

Actually Argentina got $20 Billion so it's like 1,000x worse

And no those customers don't want to buy our crops anymore BECAUSE WE WERE GIANT ASSHATS so we better put our big boy capitalist pants on and find new ways to earn a living

Dear US Farmers, You wanted America First... Enjoy being America Alone. Have the day you voted for.

kind regards, The rest of the world

Guess the farmers will have to sell their farms to billionaires for half price now.

Go work for Amazon while Jeff Bezos uses your land to save money on groceries.

And now JD Vance’s Acretrader can come buy up all the land for cheap and sell it to foreign interests!

This is why farmers shouldn't monocrop. Even if a farmer doesn't care about the environment and soil health, monocropping makes a farmer vulnerable to the volatile nature of geopolitics and the global economy.

Most farmers voted to burn their own fields... again. The same man who nearly crippled American agriculture last time was welcomed with open arms. Tariffs, trade wars, and labor shortages wrecked their profits before, but somehow they lined up for another round. It is like watching someone hire the same man who burned down their house and expecting him to rebuild it this time.

Canada, Russia, Belarus and China are the major players in potash mining and production. The US doesn't mine or produce any in a substantial number. The US has huge import tariffs on China, and can't currently buy from either Russia or Belarus.

Canada needs to put a 50-70% export tariff on potash. That would crush US farming.

If Trump wants to play, let's burn them to the ground. Here is your 51st state you cunt.

Trump is bankrupting America like he bankrupted all of his businesses.

Hey there woah ... if you say something bad about djt, he'll dump on you from an F35 so EVERYTHING is PERFECT no matter what you say.

I hope we all like soy beans because that is going to be the only affordable thing in the grocery store.

IMO there's a good chance that Trump's second term will mark the end of the United States as a super power.

"Temporary" my ass. They are going to beg for those evil socialistic handouts for the coming years. Simply because it is unlikely to get better.

More generally, VOTERS killed farming in America.

Yes, but now the US can use all the water to train chatbots that invent facts wholecloth. Checkmate, China.

I'm going to end up emigrating from this fucking country primarily so I can stop bailing out dumbfucks.

This is absurd.

We're going to bail out "bootstrap" assholes after they were warned they were going to kill their own livelihoods. Fuck that clown shit.

Customer retention is a huge thing. Customers are often hard to get and easy to lose. Piss them off and they'll find an alternative and they are not coming back. Trump has crippled us for decades.

That's one way to get the farms into the hands of billionaires for cheap.

My wife said this tonight and it really hit me: China will be eating burgers and America will be eating soy

That is the result of a hyper individualist society, USA is literally the cancer of the world and now it's hurting itself

If only people could have seen this coming, especially the farmers who dealt with the same shit last time they elected Trump.

Sucks to suck.

If only they knew it was their own votes that bent them over the barrel.

Common clay and all that. Morons.

You know which country? Argentina. Who are we aiding with currency transfers and trade deals for meat? AREGENTINA

What I don't get is how come this hasn't translated to more plentiful and cheaper soybeans here for the local market. You can't buy fresh soybeans at my local grocery store. You can only get them frozen and they're about four bucks a bag. Which isn't hugely expensive but it's not exactly cheap either.
