LOL! Really? We are taking what could be food and putting it in our gas tanks! And you go on about full bellies? Well lets start looking at this. The US produces only about 45% or the worlds food to start with so you ain't feeding the world, or even half of it. So any US farmer claiming that they are filling bellies all the while trying to get the government to force more BIO fuels on the nation are not being completely honest! If you were so concerned about filling bellies you'd demand that they stop making fuel out of crops and dedicate those crops to feeding those starving in the world! I understand you are not farming for the heck of it. You are trying to make a living. What you are not used to is the consumer saying "I don't want that". Well that is what the consumer is doing today. You are now going to have to meet what the consumer is expecting. Basically the farmer lost. The tree huggers convinced people that all the chemicals are dangerous. And no, they are not going to take your word for it. They see you as a business in it for profit. While the farmer was on farm forums going on about how dumb city folks are the tree huggers were gaining national media attention. Then PETA jumped in. Now most folks are not going to stop eating meat because of PETA but they don't like the idea of animals being maltreated. And the Farmer got on farm forums and made fun of city slickers. Now the city slicker want's non GMO food and free range eggs. It's no longer a fad either. Not when you go to the grocery store and look at just how much space is dedicated to "cage free" "free range" "grass fed" and or organic foods. Don't matter how flawed the system is or how easy it is or isn't to cheat. That is what the consumer wants. And farmers are not use to bowing to customer demand. You are not going to fix anything here. You need to get on health food forums and convince the CONSUMER, some 320 million people, that 3.5 million are right.
