I'm not admitting to or denying anything. What I'm saying is that if the conventional farmer wants to keep farming as they are now they have to get the message they want the consumer to get across to the consumer. Right now the ANTI GMO and PETA are winning that battle. You used the correct term, CREDIBILITY and consumer confidence. With the nitrates in the water that most farmers are claiming isn't their fault, and other chemicals being used the consumer is running scared. And with the track record of chemical companies who can blame them? Then on top of that what else do they hear about farming? A news story about how the farmer is struggling while showing video clips of 500,000 dollar machines. Now explain that to a family of 4 making 100K a year. Get that family, totally dissociated from farming to understand that the guy in the news who owns several million dollars worth of land plus owns or leases millions more in equipment is broke? Convince them to pay more for food and to burn more ethanol. The anti big farm and the anti chemicals crowd has got their message out. People are believing them. So the feed lot, enclosed poultry, GMO farmers have got to stop yelling that all this "free range" "Grass fed" "cage free" is no different on farm pages. Here you have 2 sides. And most likely you are not going to change anything here. You, the GMO, Feed lot guys have got to talk to the general public. If not in the long run you will either be forced into "sustainable" or "organic" farming or fail. All because even lower income people are running scared or what you are producing.

I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit
