I do not know when the consumer is going to feel it, but it is already happening. It is already in the works. Wheat is going to be in short supply around the world.
The weather patterns have changed.
The top soil has been eroded and mined out, and has so much glyphosate, soon nothing will grow there.
And, if you haven't notice, there is a war in Ukraine where much of the wheat is grown in Eurasia.
America also sold too much of our reserve wheat to China last year.
Prices were manipulated down, China bought it up... nothing to see here.
Wheat is getting harder to get, and prices are going up.
Winter still isn't over in much of the country, and so crops that should be already in the ground are not.
The rain is not as it usually is, nor where it usually is.
Its like a force is stopping it from reaching the bread basket of the world.
(literally, there is a high pressure zone sitting smack dab on top of the wheat growing area)
In Ukraine they are getting extra, extra rain. It is supposedly hampering the war. However, it is planting time and it is too wet to use tractors in the fields... and, like, you know, there is a war going on.
All these add up to a poor wheat harvest this year... but i am counting my chickens before the eggs are even laid.
This is really speculation.
I am definitely feeling a bread shortage coming.
But i do not know when. Is it this year just before the harvest when we run out of stored wheat?
Or is it towards the end of this year when we didn't get a harvest, or only 50% of what we expected?
And i could be wrong about the cause. It could be civil war, or a shipping crisis.
Or it could be something made up by FEMA.
Something is up, and i am not trusting any of the actors.
Anyway, wheat berries are one of the easiest things to store long term.
So get yourself some wheat berries.
At least keep an ear to the ground, and when you start to see a bread shortage, fill up your freezer.
