“There are 444 counties in the United States classified by the United States Department of Agriculture (is that still around?) as “farming-dependent,” which is defined as counties where either 25% of its earnings come from agriculture, or 16% of the workforce works in farming.
Donald Trump won 433 of those counties, with an average vote of 77.7%. Over 100 of them gave Trump 80% or more of their vote.”

“A federal foreign food aid program with a Kansas legacy and an uncertain future could be saved by Congress under a bill championed by.
U.S. Rep. Tracey Mann and U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, both Kansas Republicans… who introduced legislation to save Food for Peace. The 70-year-old foreign food aid program…, would be moved from the shuttered U.S. Agency for International Development and into the U.S. Department of Agriculture.”

It's interesting to me about the scant #media attention this is getting (at least here in the #USA)

MASSIVE protests in #Belgrade #Serbia

Reason: a train station collapsed in November, 15 dead. The entire country is seething with disgust at long standing #corruption

The Prime Minister just resigned, but the protesters are aiming for #Vucic

Now, #farmers are joining #students in their 24 hour #traffic #blockade

Keep your eyes on Serbia

Hmmm.... some leading supermarkets have come out in support of the National Farmers' Union demand that changes in inheritance tax as they effect farmers should be pause while the impact of implementation is assessed.

Now, the Q. is: is this good faith support, or a bit of distraction politics to lead farmers' supporters away from continuing problem with supermarkets domination of the food system & their aggressive treatment of their supplies?

Just asking....

Jeremy Clarkson U-Turns On Previous Claim He Bought Farm To Dodge Tax, Shares Real Reason

Dear media, can you please stop referring to the people protesting today as "farmers"?

Most farmers won't be affected by the IHT changes.

The word you're looking for is "wealthy landowners".

Yet another example of the subtle way in which the media work to protect the interests of the wealthy and privileged.

“The National Farmers union has accused the government of "betrayal" over changes to inheritance tax as thousands of farmers prepare to gather in London for a rally. Its president Tom Bradshaw told the BBC the measures announced in the Budget were "completely unjust".” Totally unjust that the well off have to pay (a very reduced rate of) tax. #Tax #Farmers


@Pamela1960 has just made an excellent point: on today's Farmers march there were many tractors (photographed often; number plates visible); unless these tractors had their red diesel drained & replaced with full-exice fuel farmers were breaking the law - see legal advice of red diesel usage below.

Q. will the HMRC now instruct the police or SFO to investigate the extent of these illegal actions & prosecute where there is clear evidence (much is already available)?

Short answer: no!

#farmers
Vehicles that will be allowed to use red include agricultural and horticultural vehicles, special vehicles, unlicensed vehicles and certain machines and appliances. Please remember they must only be doing an approved operation (of benefit to land/livestock) not just working off-road as is currently allowed.

Provided contractors are doing agricultural, horticultural, fish farming or forestry work they can continue to use red diesel driving to and from the farm, carrying materials or equipment needed for the job and removing waste resulting from their work.

At the moment it is legal to use red in off-road vehicles for non-agricultural work, provided these vehicles are not driven to the job on the road (e.g. work on sports fields). Currently these machines should be transported to jobs on a low loader so would not be driven on the road on red. After 1 April 2022, such vehicles will have to switch fuel to white for non-agricultural work (even if machines are unlicensed and never driven on the roads). Agricultural jobs will still be allowed on red.

Update. There's a strong #RightToRepair bill in #Michigan with grassroots support from #farmers.
https://michiganadvance.com/2023/08/23/michigan-farmers-urge-state-lawmakers-to-pass-right-to-repair-legislation/


Update. Turns out that John #Deere has been using open code under the #GPL w/o living up to the license. The Software Freedom Conservancy (@conservancy) is calling on it to comply — which would greatly enhance #farmers' #RightToRepair.
https://sfconservancy.org/blog/2023/mar/16/john-deere-gpl-violations/

"We…publicly call on John Deere to immediately resolve all of its outstanding GPL violations…by providing complete source code…that the GPL & other copyleft licenses require, to the farmers & others who are entitled to it."

#Congress Introduces Bill That Would Let #Farmers Repair #JohnDeere #Tractors
The legislation would “prohibit a manufacturer from imposing any additional cost or burden that is not reasonably necessary or is designed to be an impediment on the owner or independent repair provider,” and also requires them to make diagnostic software and firmware available to farmers and independent repair shops, ensuring #righttorepair for farmers nationwide. https://www.404media.co/congress-introduces-bill-that-would-let-farmers-repair-john-deere-tractors-without-hacking-them/
