Catastrophic Flooding In Midwest Could Last "For Months", Threatens US Food Production

The End of The American Dream blog March 21, 2019


The worst flooding disaster in the history of the Midwest is just getting started, and as this crisis unfolds we are all going to be feeling the pain. 


The “bomb cyclone” that recently brought hurricane-force winds and blizzard conditions to the middle of the nation was the spark that set off this catastrophic flooding, and now all of the snow from one of the snowiest winters in decades is going to be feeding into rivers that have already shattered all-time flood records.  Most of the Great Plains and Upper Midwest is currently covered by more than 10 inches of snow.  As all of that snow melts, we are going to witness an agricultural disaster that is far beyond anything that we have ever seen before in modern American history.


Unfortunately, the crisis is not over.  In fact, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds is saying that we are “just getting started”. Reynolds, whose tour of western Iowa this week had revealed unprecedented flooding, added “It looked like an ocean.”

At least 91 percent of the upper Midwest and Great Plains is snow covered to an average depth of 10.7 inches, according to the U.S. National Operational Hydrologic Remote Sensing Center in Chanhassen, Minnesota.

Needless to say, this is beyond a “worst case scenario” for countless numbers of Midwest farmers. We are literally facing a national food production nightmare.


Millions of acres of farmland are underwater, and that is not going to change any time soon.  When the flood waters came, they moved so rapidly that they literally picked up pigs and baby calves and carried them along.  Roads, rail lines and entire small towns have been washed away, and so even if farmers had something left to sell they couldn’t get it to market anyway.

We have also witnessed the loss of massive stockpiles of wheat, corn and soybeans that had already been harvested.  As river levels rose, spilling over levees and swallowing up townships, farmers watched helplessly as the waters consumed not only their fields, but their stockpiles of grain, the one thing that can stand between them and financial ruin.

According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, flood-soaked wheat, corn and soybeans are considered to be “adulterated” and they must be destroyed.

And thanks to the ongoing trade war with China, farmers had a staggering amount of wheat, corn and soybeans stored on their farms right now. In one county alone, more than a million bushels of corn are sitting under the floodwaters at this moment…

Ladies and gentlemen, food prices are about to start soaring in a major way. 

Even before the flooding, farm bankruptcies had hit the highest level since the Great Recession, and now those numbers are going to explode much, much higher.

In addition to everything else, all of this flooding is causing massive topsoil erosion.  We had already lost over half our topsoil, and we aren’t too far from an apocalyptic situation.

Food production in the United States is going to be way, way down this year.  Prices at the grocery store are immediately going to start rising, and they are going to keep rising all year long.  Our breadbasket has been absolutely devastated, and things are only going to get worse.  Even if everything went perfectly from this point forward we are talking about a recovery that would take many, many years.

There will be death loss, and sadly in staggering numbers.
There will be families that have lost everything. They lost equipment, their houses, sheds, tools, and worst of all, their animals they care deeply for. Their livelihoods are being stripped from them in the most painful manner possible.
The “new normal” along the Mississippi River, the Missouri River and other major rivers in the middle part of the country is going to mean much, much higher prices at the grocery store. Already, a full cart of groceries can easily run $200 or more.

So how bad will things ultimately get as this crisis continues to unfold?

Правительство США еще нарушает мои права, в течении 15 лет отказывается от выплаты причитающейся мне пенсии по старости. Властители США воруют пенсию!!


ФСБ - Федеральная служба «безопасности» России - вслед за позорным, предавшим страну предшественником КГБ, мерзко выполняет приказы секретного, кровавого хозяина (boss) - американского ЦРУ (CIA). Среди таких «задач» - мне запретить выступать в СМИ и не пропускать отправленных мне комментариев. А это далеко не всё...
