No they can't. They haven't been able to feed themselves for some time. Not enough land. They import a lot of food. And for England, Germany and other European countries? They were importing food from other countries prior to WWII. So that's not even a new problem.
OK, do farmers need to band together to fight everyone else?
Look at that for a second. You want to fight your customers? Something is really wrong with that line of thought. You think of the end user as the enemy? The end user is the customer! You are not going to get that trust back by fighting. Fighting will only serve to make the customer fight back. They have the money. There are foreign sources for food. And they have the money. You guys have convinced yourselves that the demand for cheap food is the consumers fault. Gotta have certain things to survive. Food is not optional, nor is water and Oxygen. The customer never boycotted food by a mass hunger strike demanding lower prices. They, just like YOU walk into a store, place what they need in a cart or basket and go pay whatever it is they are told to pay. The consumer is the one who is bent over the barrel. They have to take what is offered and they can afford. You reduce beef output causing prices to go up they eat less beef and more pork and chicken. But the consumer is not your enemy. Most good small business owners know that they have to cater to and take care of the customer. So if the customer demands GMO free food? Give them GMO free food! What's so hard about that? Guess what? Do what the customer wants and they are willing to pay more. Look at what the organic eaters pay for their food!
