Sunnyobums: Whether we like it or not, God is sending a message to the world...the end times are here...all the signs are glaring. God will always be God and man will always be whom he is.. a mere man! Some will understand the message & be prepared like the boys scouts, many will not understand to their detriment! 1 Like |

planetx: If there is any senseless one here it is you. You did not see long queue of people waiting to receive food. If there are more places for such distribution will there be such long queue? Instead of giving out the foods they chose to destroy it because there is no buyer, can you see your sense? Fabricators of falsehood. |

bamasite2: The final consumers are under lockdown but their stomachs are not under lockdown. I think the problem in USA is that the food supply chain is broken, foods are perishable commodities so there is no way they can get them to the final consumers as quickly as needed. Most of these foods being destroyed are meant for exports and to restaurant chains which are mostly closed now. |

OlujobaSamuel:I have a solution. They could as well drop the food at our doorsteps. The only problem is that they are some who are homeless and don’t even have doorsteps. |

Amotolongbo: You can see that many of our so called billionaires are mentally lazy aside from being wicked. Instead of throwing money that will be eventually stolen at the problem they could have organized themselves to buy such produce and distribute free to Nigerians. A gain at both ends. |

olumide4christ: Dont mind the fellow. There are food banks across the cities in the US that you can go get free food. But the challenge as pointed out in the article is that they do not have resources to refrigerate or store such huge amount of food especially now. Problem is its going to cost money to distribute such perishables. The farmer can't bear the cost and surely the govt is too busy with Coronavirus now. Private individuals that are well to do should come out to fund this rather than all giving money to fund raisings. Yes there are still people that lack inspite of the food banks. |

yeyeosoronga: U had to employ d use of YouTube to understand poultry business and how cows are milked yet u are asking me to visit a Nigerian poultry which invariably means that u might never have seen a poultry urself. |
Re: Lockdown: US Destroys Tons Of Food As Farmer Can’t Get Buyers by lexy2014: 4:40pm On Apr 13, 2020 |
yeyeosoronga: Did I say I was offered any of d products? I clearly don't see how what u said relates to d discussion except u just getting emotional |
Re: Lockdown: US Destroys Tons Of Food As Farmer Can’t Get Buyers by lexy2014: 4:53pm On Apr 13, 2020 |
yeyeosoronga: I see u exhibiting a lot of emotional trauma in ur comments because of d way u are getting unnecessarily personal about d issue. Am a bit a loss with how u are trying to tie stimulus package & distribution of farm produce. When I read this: "They've never been involved in that before, and now is the wrongest time to ask them to get involved", I asked myself how u came d conclusion that "they have never been involved in that before" and who is asking who anything? According to u: "Many struggling people in America would appreciate these farm produce, but a lot of logistics are involved and they cannot access it due to the distance of these farms" Is it d beneficiary's that will go to d farms to pick up these products? That's y I asked u, is it all d States in d US that are badly hit by d corona virus? So if u say that "Farmers have always discarded farm products not used in the past", that means that there corona isn't an excuse because it has never really been in their culture not to waste unutilized farm produce |

lexy2014: You obviously have unresolved issues.. I probably should have posted another link to show you how eggs from poultry is not "harvested" , but laid. I attached a video so you would understand how milk is produced on a farm. Anyway, I really hope you're able to shake off that feeling of entitlement you seem to have over the property of developed nations. Good day. |
Re: Lockdown: US Destroys Tons Of Food As Farmer Can’t Get Buyers by lexy2014: 7:32pm On Apr 13, 2020 |
yeyeosoronga: So after d eggs are laid, will d eggs take themselves out of d poultry? Am not really sure where u read anything about entitlement in my comment or did u just learn d word? |

Farki: Get it. It's time like these that government needs to come in and coordinate essential duties. No one is saying they should take full control, but play its policing role during times of crises like this. They've always been the missing link even without the pandemic. Food security and socio-economic insurance somehow goes hand in hand. As it is, the privately controlled system of food cultivation and distribution is failing before everyone's eyes not because they can't do their work but because they've been hampered by the lockdown imposed by the same government for everyone's good. This is where government should step in temporarily |
