We're Heading for Deep Organic Fertilizer

Since some of my readers are agrarian I figured some words to the wise about needing to stock up on fertilizer would be a good idea. Between the inflation and the hostility to agriculture we seem heading for the Zimbabwe plan.
Obama issued an Executive order on August 1, 2013 that will effectively ban Ammonium Nitrate in the USA. It will become too expensive and create too much possible civil and criminal liability to manufacture, store, or transport it. Clinton did the same thing to Anhydrous Ammonia dealers in 1999. It put most Anhydrous dealers out of business. Obama is imposing the same regs and adding explosives regulations on top of OSHA and EPA regulations. It’s all there if you know how to read bureacratese.
Food and Fuel prices will skyrocket because Ammonium Nitrate forms the basis for almost all nitrogen in granular fertilizers used in American farming. There are no cost and ease of manufacture/use equivalents for ammonium nitrate. Supply and demand economics are going to be the harsh lesson of the day. Crop yields will go down. Corn is the basis for the American food supply and the fuel additive ethanol. A.N. is critical in corn production.
Hope everyone is ready for $12/gallon gasoline and $20 a box corn flakes.
You know why NKoreans are starving?? Because they don’t have ammonium nitrate to fertilize their crops… so they have shi*ty yields…

      Except what I can really see happening is the machinery getting shipped down to Mexico and the fertilizer being imported to the US. Meanwhile the cartels will be using their new supply of boomex on each other and shipping it up to their satellite gangs in the US.

      Only mega corporate farms will have permission to have the stuff thus pushing the traditional small farmer out of business,

      But think about why they are buying up the supply of common caliber ammo. They are trying to disarm us. Same thing with the fertilizer. They don't want a bunch of folks going T1m0thy Macv3y on them when the crack down starts.
