Juicy tomatoes were left to wither — unpicked — in farmers’ fields. Thousands of acres of fruits and vegetables grown in Florida are being plowed over or left to rot because farmers can’t sell to restaurants, theme parks or schools nationwide that have closed because of the coronavirus. Other states are having the same issues — agriculture officials say leafy greens in California are being hit especially hard, and dairy farmers in Vermont and Wisconsin say they have had to dump a surplus of milk intended for restaurants. With most of its harvests in the winter months, the problem is acute in Florida. For example, a few dozen people clamored to buy 25-pound (11- kilogram) boxes of Roma tomatoes direct from a packing plant over the weekend in Palmetto, a city on the western coast. The cost per box? Just $5. “This is a catastrophe,” said tomato grower Tony DiMare, who owns farms in south Florida and the Tampa Bay area. “We haven’t even started to calculate it. It’s going to be in the millions of dollars. Losses mount every day.” Florida leads the U.S. in harvesting tomatoes, green beans, cabbage and peppers this time of year. While some of the crops are meant for grocery stores, many farmers cater solely to the so-called food service market — restaurants, schools and theme parks — hit hard as cities and states have ordered people to stay home and avoid others. The loss has created a domino effect through the farming industry, Florida’s second-largest economic driver. It yields $155 billion in revenue and supports about 2 million jobs. Many growers have donated produce to food banks, but there’s a limit on what the charities can accept and storage is an issue for perishable fruits and vegetables. DiMare said some central Florida food banks are full after theme parks shuttered and donated massive amounts of produce. “We gave 400,000 pounds of tomatoes to our local food banks,” DiMare said. “A million more pounds will have to be donated if we can get the food banks to take it.” Farmers are scrambling to sell to grocery stores, but it’s not easy. Large chains already have contracts with farmers who grow for retail — many from outside the U.S. “We can’t even give our product away, and we’re allowing imports to come in here,” DiMare said. He said 80 percent of the tomatoes grown in Florida are meant for now-shuttered restaurants and theme parks. In the past week, 20 federal lawmakers from Florida and state Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried sent letters urging U.S. Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue to include Florida farmers in federal food purchase and distribution programs so the surplus crops can help feed the hungry and food insecure. Some 37 million Americans struggled with hunger before the pandemic, according to Feeding America, a nationwide network food banks. The federal coronavirus relief act contains $9.5 billion in aid to farmers. Some farmers have tried to branch out and sell produce boxes directly to customers, an approach taken in many places as the pandemic slams the restaurant and catering industries worldwide. Wholesalers in London who usually sell fruit and vegetables to restaurants have pivoted to home deliveries. But large-scale farmers know selling harvest baskets won’t do much for their bottom line. On the U.S. West Coast, farmers who grow lettuce and other leafy greens are feeling the pinch. “The tail end of the winter vegetable season in Yuma, Arizona, was devastating for farmers who rely on food service buyers,” said Cory Lunde, spokesman for Western Growers, a group representing family farmers in California, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. “And now, as the production shifts back to Salinas, California, there are many farmers who have crops in the ground that will be left unharvested,” particularly leafy greens. He said a spike in demand for produce at the beginning of the outbreak has now subsided. “People are staying home and not visiting the grocery stores as often,” Lunde said. “So the dominoes are continuing to fall.” In southern Florida, Paul Allen, president of R.C. Hatton Farms, took a video last week of row after row of vibrant green beans that were scheduled to be shipped to the restaurant industry. “You can see this is a huge field of green beans,” he said, lifting his cellphone camera to show a tractor plowing all the healthy plants and their beans into the soil. Allen, who farms about 12,000 acres (4,900 hectares) in Florida and Georgia, is praying that things improve by the time crops in north Florida and Georgia are ready to be harvested over the next two months. “You just hope you can live another day,” Allen said. - Fair Use -]]> Main Forum Geri7 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13650 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13649 Thu, 09 Apr 2020 16:47:13 +0000 Main Forum 2ndcoming https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13649 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13648 Thu, 09 Apr 2020 15:48:40 +0000 Main Forum Arthur https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13648 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13647 Thu, 09 Apr 2020 15:07:02 +0000 Main Forum Geri7 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/5/#post-13647 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13646 Thu, 09 Apr 2020 14:24:20 +0000 Main Forum Arthur https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13646 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13645 Thu, 09 Apr 2020 13:28:59 +0000 Memorial Day! ;-)   But before you start celebrating ...  by late Nov - early December (during Christmas shopping season) ... get ready for Round 2. :wacko: So do we have a very narrow window of normality timeline of when the rapture might happen if you’re looking for a ”business as usual” setting and IF this high watch week of Passover and Easter comes and goes? :unsure: Here are some future high watch dates :mail:   Please let me know if I’m missing any that you might have.  Thanks. May 7th  Super Moon (National Day of Prayer in U.S.) May 14th Rebirth of the State of Israel (Pope Francis is inviting world leaders and young people to come together at the Vatican on May 14, 2020, for a an event called “Reinventing the Global Educational Alliance) May 21st  Ascension Day May 25th Memorial Day (The “Virus” Ends?) May 31st  Pentecost June 19th (Last Day of Spring) “might be” the code date of Lisa Leenie’s dream?  If you read the numbers 11192 backwards from right to left like a Jewish scroll ... we are looking at: 29 + 111 days.   Does 29 represent – Feb 29th since it’s a leap year as the start date and then add 111 more days … it will take us to June 19th which is the last day of Spring. July 17  Pentecost (according to 2nd Coming research)   ——————— The Politico article ... I only copied the meaningful paragraphs: “By December, we are going to go through this again” A conversation with Dr. Janis Orlowski, chief health care officer of the Association of American Medical Colleges. As the United States faces down the dual crises of the Covid-19 pandemic and a widespread shortage of medical supplies and equipment, Dr. Janis Orlowski is working 13-15 hours a day trying to mitigate the damage. As the chief health care officer of the Association of American Medical Colleges, she talks with senior government officials daily. She listens to the concerns of some of the biggest hospitals in the country — the shortages of masks and ventilators and ICU beds and doctors and nurses. And she’s sober-minded about the weeks and months ahead. I believe that we're going to return to a semi-normal life at the end of May — Memorial Day,” Dr. Orlowski said in an interview for a special coronavirus-focused episode of POLITICO’s Women Rule podcast. “But the other thing that I would say is that we have to prepare ourselves to go through a similar exercise in the fall, in the late fall. If you take a look at the 1918-1919 influenza pandemic, and if you take a look at how coronavirus is acting, this is not just the winter and spring of 2020. Probably late November, by December, we are going to go through this again.  Now, what we hope is that we have a vaccine, but there's not going to be a vaccine that's going to be ready in 6-8 months. And so the likelihood is that we're going to spend the summer months having a semi-normal life, but getting ourselves prepared to go through this again and go through it better. Be ready to stay at home. Understand what that means. Everyone get as much toilet paper as they need to have. We're going to do this again and we're going to be smarter and better at doing this. And so, let's start talking about how we make it through the next seven weeks. But then let's talk about how we're going to do it smarter, come the winter time. - Fair Use -      ]]> Main Forum Geri7 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13645 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13230 Wed, 25 Mar 2020 20:19:04 +0000 Main Forum tenderreed https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13230 https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13222 Wed, 25 Mar 2020 11:26:44 +0000 Main Forum Yohanan https://raptureintheairnow.com/community/main-forum/lisas-vision-explained-11192/paged/4/#post-13222
