One America News added:
On Monday, numerous fire departments, along with additional emergency personnel, responded to a fire after authorities received reports of an explosion at a chicken farm plant on Highway 21 near Kurten.
Brazos County Sheriff Wayne Dicky reported that Highway 21 is reduced to one lane and that Democrat Rd. is now closed. He also reiterated that the area should be avoided by drivers and onlookers.
Around 6:30 p.m., Bryan Texas Utilities posted on X (Twitter) that “system operators must take around 140 customers out of service so firefighters can safely respond to the fire off Hwy 21.”
There has been no further information reported in regards to how the fire started. Authorities say that they are continuing to investigate the fire’s origins.
This is a developing story.
What To Do About Skyrocketing Food Prices? Start Here…
Just announced: Russia is stopping all wheat exports for the rest of the year. And China has been stockpiling food.
By mid-2022, China will hold 69% of the world’s corn reserves, 60% of rice reserves, and 51% of its wheat, according to the USDA.
American farmers are working hard to fill the gap — but fertilizer prices are skyrocketing. They could go up 80% this year, according to a Texas A&M economist.
And then there’s Biden’s gas price increase. With gas prices doubling, the cost of getting food to your grocery store keeps going up, too.
It’s a triple-whammy for food prices: Less food in the international markets, higher fertilizer costs and higher transportation costs.
Analysts say there’s no way around it: Food prices are going up.
Going up “BIG LEAGUE” you might say.
(By the way, it was always “Big League” not “Bigly”…but I digress).
Fortunately, there’s a way to lock in food at today’s prices – plus provide a massive safety net for YOU and YOUR FAMILY if things get worse.
“WHEN” things get worse?
For the first time in a long time, nuclear war is a possibility. Then, there are the everyday things that can disrupt supply chains: Cyberattacks. Power grid failure. Calamitous weather.
It’s time to wonder:
Can we go a week without going to the grocery store?
What if it were a month?
Or 3 months? Or 6 months?
Looking at the crazy state of the world, you’ve probably put some money away (and hopefully, some gold and silver).
But have you put some long-lasting food away for when things get worse?
