Anecdotal and I’d love to be wrong about this, buuuut I’m in the rural midwest rn and all of the wheat fields in like a 75 mile radius from me look like they’re absolutely fucked.
It’s basically all turned gold already which is super early for it, especially because it’s still short as fuck, like maybe a foot tall — it’s usually still green until it’s like 4 feet tall. The people who’ve lived here for a long time have been talking about how abnormal it is. I’m not a wheat scientist and haven’t really gotten into with anyone who knows what they’re actually talking about so I don’t totally know what it means, but I know it doesn’t mean anything good
Prob a good idea to stock up on food if you’ve got the means
:doomer:
When the drought hit Australia in the 2000s, crop yields went to shit. So yeah, expect the same in the US.
Yeah. We’re actually getting tons of rain where I’m at, but it’ll alternate like a week of rain with big storms followed by a week of intense sun and heat, so it’ll be too wet by the end of one week, too dry the next, with extreme and rapid temp swings and strong winds. Climate machine broke
