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.

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
