Food shortages really gonna happen? Should I buy emergency food supplies Dead fkn srs

Misc, you guys are probably the smartest people I know besides libtards and Sonycels. Is this real or just scare tactics. Give me the word. The panic hasn't hit yet. People aren't buying up the stores.

In the US no- we may have a small outage annoyingly or a single supply for a short time.

The cost of food will go up a lot though.



Worldwide yes- there will be a significant famine in multiple countries this year.

Ask yourself, if chit hit the fan, how long could your family live on the food/water, etc you currently have stocked?

Im not a doom and gloom prep-per type guy, but it doesn't hurt to know that answer and act accordingly, especially if you have the storage.

We're good for a solid 3 weeks where we could live completely normal lives and no one would have to leave or come to my house, and I'll probably bump that number up to 6 weeks.

If we do it’s because people are panic buying. The USA has the most farmable land anywhere. Ironically it’s used to grow GMO crops like corn and wheat. So maybe.

You'll also need to shift what you can afford to eat. Some things will become a luxury and you'll be eating more cheap affordable lentils and such.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

6 weeks is probably the normal reasonable sustainable number everyone should stay on as a minimum.


Just keep rotating it.

Check out savesoil.org

In the near future (30 years) we will definitely have a food shortage that'll be due to lack of quality soil which is needed to grow crops.

Ironically one of the countries currently at war has great soil and
this won't be a problem for them.

You should always have extra food stored away, whether there's a food shortage or not

We have enough meat and farms in the United States to take care of our population easily.

So unless we just start exporting more of it and starving our own citizens (which isn't completely out of the question wit the fking retards in Washington), you're good.

To grow the corn and grain we feed cattle we need the fertilizer we get from russia. Going back to the old fertilization methods of 100 years ago wont yield enough to support our current population. Maybe if we started a home garden initiative for people to start growing victory gardens but our governments ptoblem solving seems limited to printing money

Canned goods can last a lot longer than their expiration date. Opened one that was 4 years past expiration, smelled it, put my finger in it to test, then ate the whole can. It tasted just as good as it would have opened it a half decade ago.

Also, regarding the water - dumb question - there is a fresh water lake in my neighborhood. Can I just boil it to make it drinkable?

Theres an elemebt russia produces that gets intigrated into their fertilizer that makes it extremely productive. I cant remember the name of it but russia has something like 70% of the worlds supply. If they stop exporting a lot of people are going to starve and america is no exception.

put it like this, over the last 2 years there has already been a lot of empty shelves.


If biden is opening saying more food shortages are goign to happen then they will happen. The guy has alzhiemers and says things from private meetings in public he isnt supposed to say, like "they told me to only ask questions from this list of reporters", that kind of chit. I would buy something non perishable or atleast frozen food but its hard to guess when they will drop the hammer


With covid "over" they are wanting to find something in its place. Its all bull****, we been in wars for 20 years in the middle east, and theres been numerous wars, revolutions ect in south america where we actually buy food from and theres never been any problems before. Hell Russia was at war with Ukraine in 2014 and took over Crimea and you barely even heard about it and had zero affect on gas prices or food or anything else in the US.


I think long term they want to destroy all existing currencies and replace it with a new global digital currency that they can lock you out of your own money if your social credit score is too low from questioning the new world government on line or in phone calls or texts. They will get support because they will erase everyone's debt so most retards that down own anything will be on board.

IMHO... you should always have at least 6 months of stored/ freeze dried emergency rations.

You are best to have some sort of stores son.

No one in any first world country is going to starve.

It's the normal MSM paniccel bait but with a couple of economic factoids thrown in for their low IQ business segment watchers.

Dead on. OP this is the easily verifiable truth.
Food prices will go up in the US probably more than they already have in the last year. So that grocery bill of $200 in 2020 will be more like $300 before the end of this year for the same products. Or you'll be buying a hell of a lot less with that $200. One of the problems with this is it cuts into poor and working class people's willingness to spend money elsewhere, which drags the economy down. Part of me wonders if we'll see Ray Ray bicycling around on a 10 speed to actually places, not just office workers in bright spandex on $2000 Canondales in packs of 30 like I see in the late afternoons.

Gdamn that's a lot of food and water stock. I hear you on the TP frenzy 2 years ago. I have a handheld sprayer attached at the guest bathroom toilet. I bought it to spray cloth diapers with before washing, but it works perfectly as a handheld bidet. I get off the crapper cleaner than any amount of wiping can do and TP is really just to pat dry with. I used to have one of those ones you attack to the seat itself. I recommend either, especially if you poop more than once a day.
