Is someone manipulating food prices by creating shortages? Why? To starve us or punish The USA?
A friend of mine was concerned about the shortage of food processing plants. The fires destroying some of the largest food processing plants. The questions was & is there a conspiracy to starve us or punish us? Good question considering all the things that have been happening. If you ask a question enough times and word it differently each time on a computer search you will finally come up with some theories of your own. I will report to you and you make up your own mind.

There are some incorrect things in this list but it is large enough to to be concerned about. Was the accidental fires at 18 major food processing plants the result of an intentional attempt to “starve” or “Punish” Americans.
Of the fires listed, 12 were ruled accidental. What I found out concerned me. Learning about the cattle industry / Chicken industry / Meat processing facilities / Slaughter Houses and meat in general I see the information referring to the “BIG FOUR”. So asking who the “BIG FOUR are?” It is hard to answer because Tyson Foods have bought some of them since the last information. Tyson is into Beef / Poultry / Pork.
Packer margins jumped from $191 to $358 per head the week after the Fire
The Tyson incident sent a ripple through the cattle markets, driving cattle futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange down on worries about whether demand for beef could be met. The CME’s December live cattle market took more than two months to recover. Schroeder said the industry is still feeling the impact.
“Cattle prices went down very quickly. There are some questioning ‘did they go down further than they should?’” said Schroeder.
Cattle ranchers and feedlot operators took the brunt of the cost after the fire, shouldering extra transportation costs and resigning themselves to accepting those deep discounts on the price of their cattle.
The fire also cost Tyson, which faced significant building repairs, and paid its entire staff while the facility was shuttered.
Tyson Foods Supply Many Countries
Today, the so-called “Big Four” beef processing companies—which include control around 85 percent of feedlot cattle in the U.S. (Beef has seen the fastest rate of consolidation compared to poultry and pork). In recent years, producers have accused these companies of engaging in anti-competitive business practices, like depressing live cattle prices through restrictive contracts or adjusting the supply number available, while simultaneously reaping record profits.
Tyson a Global Food Company. With operations in 10 countries serving consumers and customers on five continents, our growing international presence allows us to deliver locally relevant innovation Tyson Foods is one of the world’s largest food companies, producing about 20% of the beef, pork and chicken in the U.S. It services restaurants and schools and sells brands like Jimmy Dean and etc.
Tyson Foods enters new markets worldwide including countries in Asia, Central America, South America, the Caribbean, and the Pacific Rim. By 1991, the company’s international sales offices include Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Canada.
Founded: 1935; 87 years ago
Revenue: US$ 43.185 billion (2020)
Number of employees: 139,000 (2020)
Headquarters: Springdale, Arkansas, U.S.
The USDA can’t control what these companies do, The American people are paying the price. We have even found unsafe conditions in processing food. If we shut them down the American people will do without food.
This story is so time consuming you will have to do some of the research. According to investigators no one is trying to starve the American people. I reserve my opinion on that until I see progress in the supply chain. It also could be to punish us as they did with the COVID virus.
What is your opinion? Also is it a Gobal effort? If it is true someone wants to rule the world!
