We won’t see a huge shortage for at least a few months if one occurs.
Near term price movement up for some products is expected
Sigh
As an entire country, I agree it doesn’t appear we will be running out of food anytime soon. People may have to adjust to different products than they are used to, but that’s a first world problem they are just going to have to deal with.
Exactly. We will temporarily have to be like our grandparents and cook whatever is in season and available.
Really this is an (individual) industrial workplace OH&S issue.
Up here we have probably over half a million camp workers, either living or working in close proximity, I’m surprised that something similar hasn’t happened yet.
But when it does nobodies going to be saying “oh no! We’re going to have to live without coal, gas, diamonds and gold!â€

Huh?
I’m saying this is an individual or site specific “occupational health and safety†issue being portrayed as something that relates to supply chain.

You call in/place online your order in advance (and pay) and then on Wednesdays and Saturdays you drive there, keep you ass in your car, drive through, they put it in your trunk and you drive home.

So WTF yourself.
The farm down the street from us did this this week. Online orders t-th and drive up pickup Saturday. Now I have 2 pounds of spinach to deal with.

That’s not a farmer’s market that’s curbside pickup
We’re ahead of the curve since we already eat a lot of vegan and vegetarian meals. We do eat meat sometimes but now we’ll just eat even less of it. Meat is not a necessity for good nutrition during a pandemic.
meat could be the harbinger of things to come… everything, including all your vegetables, will be affected if the supply chain breaks. I hope it doesn’t come to point.

Doesn’t it relate to the supply chain since the site is part of a supply chain? (as far as I can tell)

Ok yes say 4-5% but I think the bigger issue is that when these stories grab legs you see artificial spikes in demand for 2-3 weeks of 400-600% (tp, dog food, canned tuna, pasta etc) I’ll try and find the article but it related to inventory and sales stats from a large grocery chain for the past month.

It’s curbside pickup at the farmer’s market. This is also a year-round permanent FM.
Thankfully we have quadrupled exports to China of pork
We just bought a market hog today, slaughtered, skin prepared, we’re doing our own butchering and curing.
Awesome. My dad would have done that. I have some farmer friends who are moving on a few pigs at a time that way. Stressful times for farmers. On top of all that the cold snap in the last few days likely means only a partial crop for orchard fruits this year in midwest and northeast.
