[Gateway] There could be trouble on the near horizon for the United States food supply as multiple factors could lead to scarcity at the grocery store.
Agricultural experts are sounding the alarm for 2023 as inflation, uncooperative weather, and federal regulations are set to strain American farmers and other producers.
Stephanie Nash, an activist with the conservative group Turning Point USA and fourth-generation member of a dairy farming family in California and Tennessee, told Fox News in an interview Tuesday that the country is on the cusp of a supply crisis.

But no matter where farmers are, she said, it will be difficult for smaller operations to stay in business in 2023.
"If you look at Big Corp, Big Government, they are the ones killing off family farmers and ranchers and reaping the benefit of Americans at the grocery store," Nash said.
"That’s the truth of what is happening in America, and that’s the truth of what will happen if we don’t start to wake up and support local."
Nash is not the only one predicting shortages.
Emphaisis added.
Go Green Go Hungry. BUT the biggest threat to small family farms (those under a couple thousand acres) are tax laws, especially inheritance tax laws. Corporations do not have to pay them every generation to stay in business.
