THIS is taking back America American farmer says he’s done getting ripped off and is refusing to sell to big corporations anymore, he now only sells direct to customer He says in the 1980s they got paid $800 a ton, today Big Corporations pay just $380 a ton “I want to give a shout out and a big thank you to the big corporations for not paying farmers a fair price for their crops so far this year. I have not sold a single kernel of corn to the big corporations that buy nearly all the corn in the United States. I sold them zero. I've sold all of it direct to deer hunters and cattle farmers. I've ground into cornmeal, I've ground into grits. That bin is getting mighty, mighty low. I sold zero to you, Corporate America. I'm selling it all direct and I make a lot more money I'm not doing it that way. With my peanuts, they tanked the price of peanuts early this year. We normally get about $600 a ton or $500 a ton somewhere in that range. In 1980s, we got $750 to $800 a ton. Right now, the big corporations are paying peanut farmers $380 a ton for peanuts when we were getting $700 in the 80s, 1980s. It is damn ridiculous. It is a shame and something needs to be done about it. — Because corporate America wouldn't give us a price we deserve for our crops, so we just cut them out of the loop. They ain't no longer getting a piece. It's straight from me to you.”
