Time Text
All right, welcome everybody to this urgent interview with David Dubine, who is, of course, with ADAPT 2030.
He's a meticulous researcher, educator, communicator, and he has some bombshell new details to share with us today about the global failure of crops and the coming famine that is about to hit us at the same time that these insane tariffs hit us as well.
So, David, welcome to the show today.
Thanks for having me on.
And everybody out there, please stay glued for a second.
I'm going to be showing you my forecast charts, how I arrived at that analysis.
And you can do the very same thing at home.
I'm not going out on some weird algorithm thing.
I'm just using AI to run through a different way of looking at the news to come up with these forecasts many, many months ahead of the USDA.
And Mike hit on a real important point there.
Why is all this happening right now is the question.
You know, we look at this.
The tariffs explain away everything.
It's the perfect excuse.
Your food might be disrupted.
The selections in the supermarkets will be disrupted.
And everywhere we look, the costs will go up.
And if something doesn't arrive or it's just right, it's the perfect excuse.
Now, anything that doesn't arrive back on the farms, the machinery repair parts, could be some chemicals they need for application.
Fuel additives or whatever it is, seed supply.
Now this disruption, I do believe it's meant as an excuse also to dent into the available grain supply.
Not so much the lettuce you're growing in your backyard, but the global grains.
And that's what I want to talk about today.
So thanks for bringing me on.
I appreciate it.
Absolutely, David.
And just give us your channel or your website where people can also follow you.
Adapt2030. It's up on YouTube, and you can go to Rumble as well as Brighteon to find the Adapt2030 channel.
I started a new website, Civilization Cycle Podcast.
You can throw your email in there, and we send off show notes occasionally through the week of topics talked about, something just like this.
But it's getting harder to communicate, if you haven't noticed.
Everywhere seems to be...
On purpose, cutting the communication channels, whether it had been Skype, so we can't just, like, dial a number and talk freely anymore.
You have to be through Teams embedded, and now they're monitoring conversations, and you can be cut off mid-call, depending on your, I guess, conversation itself, the contents of that, if it flags bad words.
You're going to be there.
And then you look at all the entire social media, the algorithms out there to absolutely reduce reach for important points just like this.
So I'm super stoked you still have Brighteon running.
So there's some and true free speech platform.
Now, I didn't run through because yours is more of a medical AI.
So I wasn't really trying to do grain forecasting for, I do believe, Enoch AI or Brighteon.
Yeah. Yeah.
Well. Your content is always welcome on brighttown.com, and everything that you and I have ever done is already trained into Enoch, and our Enoch AI engine is completely finished.
We're just building the web interface for it right now, and so the launch of it is imminent.
So you'll be able to ask it about these topics.
You'll be able to use it as a really great research tool, by the way.
To aid, you know, your existing research.
But let's jump in.
I know you have a lot to present, but I want to start off with one breaking news item that most people are not aware of.
And that is that last Thursday, the White House announced a new docking penalty for all vessels that are made in China.
So if the ship was made in China, then every port that it goes to in America, they have to pay a $1.5 million fine.
Just because the ship was made in China, okay?
Doesn't matter what flag it's sailing under.
It's where the ship was made.
This is causing many manufacturers of Chinese goods to just abandon their loads in transit and just to tell the carrier, it's yours now.
We're not going to pay the tariffs.
We're not going to pay this extra penalty.
We forfeit it.
Good luck.
So, David, talk to us about how that's going to affect Agriculture, food, and spare parts for the food supply chain.
I mean, we both know people around in Asia, and I've been pulling some of the contacts that I used to know, and they're telling me the same thing.
Everything is ceasing.
Factories have closed that have been in business for 18 years.
Now, that's a big step because they made it through COVID.
They survived through a lot of ups and downs.
And things are just closing, and the loans are almost being called in instantly, and then the auctions are happening almost in real time as these forfeitures and foreclosures sweep through the factories.
I know there was some last-minute ordering from Southeast Asia, and then I ended up watching an enormous amount of different videos.
The factory owner was saying that this is pretty much their last order.
It was these last-minute orders from Asian buyers to try to get in on a factory run, A line can't just do an incredible minimal amount like, hey, give me 50 of this or 20 of that.
That was all baked in with the American production, and they don't even have a minimum order or a minimum, let's say, base to put that through to even get something on the outside.
They can't even run the machines because the minimum inside the machine, whether it be an exclusion or molding or you're running off 10,000 yards of cloth or something, there's not even enough minimum in there to allow those machines to run right now, depending on the orders they have.
Yeah, exactly.
And economically, it doesn't even make sense from China's point of view to then to make anything for America at this point.
And I also want to point out that these loads that are on these ships, what these carriers are going to do, obviously, is they're going to call everybody in Canada, Mexico, and South America and say, hey, you want 40-foot containers of Chinese goods for 20 cents on the dollar?
And they're going to sail down to Mexico, and they're going to offload this stuff there, and Mexico's going to be flooded, Canada's going to be flooded, while America's shelves are empty of Chinese goods.
Imagine that.
Yeah, and another thing was the Chinese suppliers themselves were trying to force their way back into the Chinese domestic market, and that's already causing ripples between locals who were entrenched in there and manufacturers that were entrenched in.
We provide for locals in China, and now all these exporters are now trying to dovetail into that market, too.
Business-wise, there's a lot of tension there.
And the amount of unemployment that's going to sweep through, the last numbers I'd seen was like 20 million laid off so far from the factories.
And that should continue to trend upward here as whoever the stranglehold wins first.
It's almost like we both have each other in a chokehold and whoever passes out first loses, right?
Yeah. It's exactly where we sit.
And it's ridiculous.
The only way I can think of it, Mike, is it's meant to be...
As the get-all, be-all, catch-all excuse for everything in the collapse mode, so there is an excuse because nobody can come clean and say it was this variable.
Oh, by the way, the cycle is back.
Magnetic excursions are deepening.
We're at about 5% per decade.
Magnetic field loss now.
The jet streams are going to go further out of their flows.
Less crops will be available to grow, but they're never going to come out clean and tell people that.
So then you have to work your own ways around because the slowdown and the excuses why the USDA won't be able to put out their crop forecasts on time this year because of the government shutdown and the government restructuring and the doge thing happening.
Again, what is it?
It's the perfect excuse.
Well, yeah, it is the perfect excuse.
But do you think that that's because Trump and his team, they know there's a collapse coming anyway, and they just really need a cover story for it?
Is that what you're thinking?
Yes. The collapse is absolutely here.
I can't see it running through or being viable for us to continue this way of life.
I mean, how do you even value something?
The shipping crisis is next.
So if no ships are sailing from port, how do you even value a shipping company then?
You don't.
And how do you value manufacturing?
You don't.
There's just this breakdown in the way that we used to even...
Give a value to that service or to that industry that's not operational at the levels it was.
And we saw it in COVID, but that was kind of, I guess, a test warm-up for what is coming.
Yeah, well, I'm glad you brought that up because I think that what we experienced during COVID, all those shutdowns and the supply chain collapse that really hurt everybody hard during COVID, that was just the warm-up round.
I think, compared to what's coming.
And now, I know you've got slides to show us, and I think that's a good segue to your presentation.
Oh, yeah.
Thank you.
Let me go ahead and bring that up to you.
By the way, this is the Ukrainian harvest some 10 years ago.
This is the kind of machinery they were using in one of the world's largest breadbaskets.
So it's not so much about Ukraine, although it is.
So I'm just going to walk you through the method I've been using.
We'll see how it works from there.
So this is, I'm just going to go right to the meat of it.
And if you're looking for the, now remember, I've been doing this analysis since February looking for the crop losses.
And I'm just simply using AI asking it to run through continental or regional country newspapers and tell me about the crop losses in a certain, I'll target it, whether it be wheat or rice or corn.
Just tell me about, give me some media.
Tell me how much, tell me what the media said that was lost in this region, and then tell me of that region, what is that percentage of the country's toe-to-hole exports?
Okay. And also usage internally, because you're trying to get a gauge on the price, how it's going to move.
So here's the table that had come out after I did all that research, and I'll walk you through just rice so you can get an idea and you can go do it yourself.
But I've changed in a lot of parameters, and it's much more fine-tuned now because I took out the policy changes and a few other things.
Okay. But we got rice at the crop at the top, globally looking for about 3.5% to 5%, and that'll transition into somewhere around 5 million tons or so decline.
So you've got to start looking at that.
No, excuse me, it's going to be larger than that because about 500 million USDA totals were, and then it was going to be 3% to 5% of that.
The wheat, also 3% to 4%.
Corn, about 4% to 5.5%.
Barley. Oats are the big one, 5% to 7%.
But oats have been struggling for years anyway, so that is something.
Canary in a coal mine.
Oats, when they started to struggle two years ago, you knew our agriculture was definitely shifting into a not-as-reliable plant-and-harvest season date, and the precipitation had changed a lot.
And then we've got rye.
And sorghum.
So these are the kind of crops that I know people around the world eat or use as stable crops.
But then, you know, versus what it did before to today and the price projected increase on the outside there.
Okay. So rice, 25 to 40%.
Now, you got to realize rice consuming nations generally are more impoverished nations than like somebody consuming wheat in the West and France and getting their baguette or something.
Right. Rice is stable crop across very...
Poor countries.
And a little bit, a little bit just sends them into, you know, over the edge on the waterfall where us, we can absorb a 40% increase.
They can't in many instances.
And that's just going to, the societal unrest will begin there.
And, you know, you're looking for this teeter-totter thing of then what's manufactured in those places?
What do we rely on from these other ones that might go socially sideways because of food pricing?
Uh-huh.
That's right.
Okay, now wait, let me stop you here for a second.
I want to provide a context note to the audience, which is that corn, wheat, and rice are all grasses, and grasses provide the primary source of calories to the human race.
Just like you said, rice is predominantly grown, you know, obviously in Asia, but also Southeast Asia, a lot of more poorer countries.
You know, corn, Mesoamerica, the United States, wheat, the same thing, but also Ukraine, like you mentioned, other places.
However, these are the baseline, for many countries, especially countries in Africa, these are the baseline grasses that prevent starvation.
And many of those people live within, let's say, 5 or 10% of poverty starvation level.
So, David, when you're talking about price increases of 25 to 40%, For many of those people, that puts them over the edge where they can't afford to not starve.
Does that make sense?
It does.
And a lot of these nations, too.
I'll go through Nigeria stuff with the rice, too, on how they read adjusted their CPI to make it not look as large on the food inflation.
But, you know, a lot of these areas, they're doing mining for critical minerals.
They're doing mining for, you know, gold and different kind of platinum group metals.
And they're also in the oil industry and a lot of these nations.
So if they're going to be over...
We're overwhelmed with food chaos, like we saw the Arab Spring.
So imagine the Arab Spring, just shift it for a second into a major supplier of X material, could be anything, that really runs the world or allows the world to run in a certain fashion for certain industries.
If that is to be upset, then those entire industries, in addition to the tariffs, are going to be, well, stymied in production, and that will, again, have some sort of rollback.
A percentage to be determined, but I'm just saying these things are all really interlocked now to the point of, I don't know if these excuses are here because it's so noticeable now for everybody on the planet that we're seeing something has changed.
The perception of humanity is changing with the magnetic field changes.
I mean, just something is so different that there's an all-out attack and an all-out 100% push by these quote-unquote controllers to...
Put so much scatter wave and shock it all out there that they need the system to change immediately, and you're not supposed to see what's changing.
You're too busy finding out, like these people would be, what's going to be next for food prices so I can stay alive.
Now, let me add something else, David.
I mean, this chart is really worrisome, but I don't think you factored in also...
The inflationary effects of currency value lost.
I did not.
I did not at all.
So that's on top of this.
So if the dollar loses another...
I mean, look, right now, the dollar's collapsing.
Gold is skyrocketing $100 a day on many days.
But that's just the dollar collapsing.
And it's down even against other weak currencies.
So David, you're saying these grains could be 25% to 40% more.
That's just based on crop losses.
You factor in currency losses that could easily be 50% or 60% more.
Or even 100%.
I was just trying to stay in my wheelhouse on this because others are experts at deciphering the losses in the dollar index and the overlay on the Japanese yen and these intertwines of the offshore yen and this sort of thing.
That's not my wheelhouse.
I kind of understand it.
I can kick a tire and talk about it a little bit, keep the conversation going.
And that in-depth analysis of what you just described.
I'm not there on the charting.
I'm there on the charting on the crop losses, but that sort of economic side of that whole realm of hundreds and hundreds of currency pairs, that needs something different in terms of analysis on its own.
But you've already thought of that.
Understood, yeah.
I'm not saying that I expect you to also be a financial expert.
I was just saying that this is just on top of what you've said.
So the actual prices at the grocery store that people are going to see.
Could really be devastating to Americans and people all over the world.
Yeah, so let me walk you through a couple more charts.
And I did this in a very methodical way.
Just so you can, if you want to copy my style, but I have a lot more parameters and I fine-tuned this thing.
And this is my 1.0 version that I've done.
I'm bringing it up to 2.0 version now that we are starting to get some, let's say, planting data now.
Because when I did this, nobody was planting.
It was in February, and then I rolled into March, and now we're in April, and there's a lot more info coming with the planting and the floods and the areas that are delayed in planting.
That's my next parameter to put in delays in planting on these same crops, which you couldn't do because they weren't planting.
So that wasn't even doable until later in the spring.
So global rice lost about 3% to 5% or so, and looking around 25 million tons.
And this will be from a total of 15 countries impacted.
Non-weather focuses like strange events.
If there was going to be a typhoon, you can't count on a typhoon coming to a country to disrupt.
So that was like a no-go for me.
Ukraine, already scraped that out because you can already factor that in.
It's not really rice anyway, but any of my analysis, I'm like, policy gone, non-weather, can't predict related things out of the equation and also take away Ukraine because I just want to see with who's operational right now because Ukraine's offline for decades.
They're not coming back anytime soon.
So where does that put us in it?
And if we scale back 2014, we get a 15% to 20% price increases, and I have a few other realistic scenarios from the early 1990s to the 2000s in, so we can get a gauge of approximately.
So we can't guess on anything that hasn't happened yet.
I could say it'll rise 5 million percent, but that's never happened.
So you've got to stay within the working parameters of things that have occurred before, so you can sort of generally measure it against that.
Doomy and gloomy and, you know, like, hey, food prices are going to, you're not famine yet, but, you know, if it goes this way and we are taken down with this tariffs and everybody stops trading with everybody, we are going to go through a very diminished food supply.
So here's the takeaway right there.
So I started to go through the first 10 countries and I was asking Grok, hey, give me these countries that are food producers that have lost at least 20% so far in the news.
And then I ask it, give me...
The news media that would also have included this story, because then I can dig down in each individual country.
And a lot of it's pests.
Pests are way different to deal with than inclement weather or some sorts of, you know, conflict, a conflict zone.
I mean, Myanmar now hit with the earthquake in addition to the conflict.
So that number, even since I've done this, is that going to jump way, way, way up to 60, 70 percent?
That earthquake just is so damaging.
And, you know, I used to buy coffee out of there.
It took forever to get them to that just rudimentary state of fixing the roads where you could drive down to go from one city to another.
And now that's all shattered, and you've seen the earth cracks and ridiculous bridge pulls apart, and they are set back.
The rice, I think, is not going to say zero.
That would be, you know, I couldn't say zero, but greatly to admit it, that's going to be far more than 20. And they're a large rice producer, by the way, for anybody in the 1960s fans of history.
Myanmar produced more rice than China did in the early 1960s.
No way.
Yeah, because they had the Great Leap Forward and all these things, and then Myanmar was able to eclipse rice production as the Chinese were reducing their food production, shall we say?
That's a little-known fact, but Myanmar could increase its rice production if it got the proper infrastructure in there.
It could probably increase its arable land by 50%, 5-0.
Wow. So let's look at the countries real quick.
We've got India and Pakistan, China, Bangladesh, Vietnam, Thailand, Philippines, Myanmar, Egypt, and Cambodia.
But look at that.
Severe pests in India.
Disease risk in China.
And if you come down, heavy pests in Thailand.
And then you've got rice blight up in the Philippines.
And then salinity problems in Egypt and Bangladesh both because they were having, you know...
Just problems with the salinity in the soil because they've gone so far down in aquifers.
And then Bangladesh was highly flooded off several typhoons.
And then Cambodia with pests.
Now, if we're going to be in a breaking down supply chain tariff war here...
Do you think chemicals to treat these things and fungicide, herbicides, pesticides are going to be like in great quantity?
So these are factors I did not push in there, but I'm thinking on the top, you know, how do I factor it in?
That's an unknown.
It's a sort of known, but an unknown, but it sort of just sits off on the side.
I just don't know how to quantify it to put it in as a possibility of loss.
Yet. Yep.
Okay. So these are the big ones.
These are the big producers.
They're all struggling.
Let me ask you this question, David.
Some of these are weather-related, but a lot of them are not.
So is there, you know, pests, etc., is there any common thread here, or is this just a convergence of lots of bad things?
I think it's a conversion of a lot of bad management and too much reliance on global supply chains that are too far away to reliably – it's a national security risk to do what we've done with our agriculture, like let all that go offshore where we're relying on other countries for our seed supply,
the base chemicals to allow us to – I'm not a fan anyway.
I'm not a fan of – What we're using for glyphosate, it's just the way it's done.
I'm saying the way it's done, the depleted soils, we need a lot of different fertilizers that aren't produced locally.
We got to import a lot of that.
Like leaving all that into a set of hands, you don't know which way they're going to go.
That's a national security risk.
And I can't believe we did it.
Can't believe it.
And we're sitting at this juncture right now where we need this so badly right now to make sure we get planted this year with the breakdowns.
And how much of that's really going to arrive?
You know how much?
I know we get a lot from Canada, but there is an enormous amount of chemical that we get from China every year for the ag industry.
That's not coming.
And whatever they had stocked back, awesome.
Whoever had the foresight to buy two, great.
I'm glad you did.
But there's going to be holes across the entire, you know, planting, harvesting, you know, field management chain here, you know, coming up.
Okay. Okay.
Wow. So how, okay, I see.
Let me ask you a question.
How long is it possible for the world to recover from this?
In other words, are we talking about, could next year be great?
Or is this a five-year thing, a decade-long thing?
How long is this crisis going to last?
Well, you can see the past and the weather changes.
This thing with the magnetic field and our jet streams going out of their flows, that's going to be a permanent disruption, at least for now.
You know, a magnetic field will restabilize in the future, but nobody knows when.
These things with the tariffs, I mean, how quickly can we untangle that ball of yarn?
Because all those suppliers in China that are going out of business, they're auctioning off their machinery and closing their factories.
How long would it take them to get back on a production line and get it functional and then get those first shipments 30 days back to us over here off a ship?
Right. You're looking at massive delays to even get that retooled and get those loans for those people and get those, let's say, a chemical facility that is producing some sort of herbicide that might be needed here in the U.S. on a major application basis of a couple million acres.
A lot of that stuff's brought in from China.
So if you're going to make that, how long will it take for those factories to put their machines back together on the floor and get their base?
Yeah, they got to go.
You know, they're going back suppliers, too.
You know, they need to go back a bit to get their base chemicals so then they can mix it and then repackage it and send it.
So, I mean, you're going multiple chains, steps back in there of bankruptcies across China right now that aren't going to be easily fixed.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah, exactly.
And you also mentioned some of the...
You know, the financing.
And the fact is that the financial world is in real trouble right now.
We're seeing, you know, global margin call, right?
You know, we're seeing the collapse of the dollar.
We're seeing banks in trouble internationally.
Some in China, some in the UK.
Many in America are on the verge of collapse.
If farmers can't get loans, they can't grow food for the most part.
I mean, farmers...
Farmers aren't bankrolling their own seeds and crops for the most part.
They're borrowing money to do it, right?
And again, maybe we have to rethink how farm financing is done.
If we're talking about resetting an entire system into stablecoin issuance as a stablecoin standard and we're going to be rocking off over to CBDCs in Europe.
Changing dollar back, you know, gold back to this or resource back that.
We definitely need to rethink farm financing because that is the most important thing for us, keeping these farms operational to produce so we can eat.
And ranchers, too.
Like, that was such a disservice.
Now, you know, one-third of all the beef in America used to go to China as of two weeks ago.
One-third.
Really? I had no idea.
Yeah, and they've just totally stopped.
There's no more.
They just said, no more beef.
Now, Australia's taken over that.
They're going to supply China.
And then Tyson Foods, and was it Smithfield, excuse me, Smithfield, was doing half-carcass hogs, just frozen, packed into a container, half-carcass, and then they would get it back to China.
And then I came to find out, it's not a large amount of business, but they would do that.
You know, containerize, freeze it, send it to China, have it butchered, repacked, and then sent back to the United States.
And I'm like, that's crazy because they do some of the same thing with our lumber.
It's cheaper to pack a ship of logs to send them over to China to have it milled, bundled, and sent back than it is to do with the labor costs and our insurance and the unions and everything here in either Canada or the U.S. It's cheaper to send our forests to get milled out over in China and then sent back on a ship.
This all needs to stop, first of all.
And then secondly of all, we really need to rethink how our farms and how our ranches and how our butchers and how everybody in that entire supply chain of getting us proteins and grains and whether they be leafies,
veg out of Cali.
We need to rethink all this, how it's working.
And they should be prioritized above anything else.
We need to take away military spending to get our farmers up and running.
I don't care.
We need to cut whatever it is to get our farms functional.
Because this is no joke here where we're being cut off and firewalled off from the rest of the planet.
They're just not going to send us stuff.
We're going to see spotty stuff at first, and then suddenly you'll start to notice it being a common anomaly, and then people will talk about it.
And finally, then what?
What happens then?
A couple of points here.
I mean, gosh, David, you have me really concerned here.
I noticed that the cattle herd numbers now are the lowest they've been since the 1950s in the United States.
So our ranches are collapsing.
And then the second point, I'd like your reaction to this, is that all of this reminds me of what the U.S. did to Japan in World War II, which was a naval embargo.
Against Japan to block the arrival of energy, forcing Japan to lash out and ultimately attack Pearl Harbor, which I think was kind of like the J6 of World War II.
It was a setup.
But that's a different conversation.
But I say that today, what Trump is doing to America is what the U.S. Navy did to Japan in World War II.
But Trump is embargoing our own freaking country.
Like, what the hell?
I'm sorry, but...
That's my honest reaction.
What's yours?
Well, it seems like we're part of the cogs in the whole machine here where we're doing our part and then China's doing its part on reciprocals and around the planet, they're all doing the same thing.
Like, well, if you do that, we're going to raise this.
It's almost like the entire planet is using tariffs to raise prices on everybody without finger pointing back to the politicians that are responsible for controlling prices with interest rates and everything else.
That it's just like, Wild field day out here where everybody's covering everybody else with excuses.
And again, the tariffs are the ultimate excuse to cover everything.
Non-deliverables, price increases, non-availability, shortages, rationing, everything else that comes.
And that Indonesia oil, you're right.
In Japan, we cut off the oil flow from Indonesia to Japan prior to World War II.
So now what's getting cut off for us?
Goods from China, but I don't need it.
I mean, I can re-wear this shirt.
You know, you've seen me wear it before in a couple interviews.
I re-wear stuff.
I mean, I don't need to go buy a new shirt immediately, but what is coming from China?
And I saw some videos where these guys were laughing, and they were in China, and they're like, what do I have in my home that's made in America?
Nothing. And they're like, what do you have in your home made from China?
Everything. So this is where they got it and us.
And we're in this disposable landfill economy, so things are made to break.
So now they're starting to break, and they're going to be integral parts to our food production system, delivery chains.
And then what?
If we don't have the repair parts, then what?
I guess the person who can fix anything and has a blowtorch or a cutter or anybody that can fabricate anything out of nothing.
We'll be the winner in this.
Well, yeah, but you need certain, you know, sometimes it's very difficult to repair certain engine parts, etc.
But I've become very good at this, by the way, living on a ranch for over a decade.
I fix stuff all the time when I don't have the parts, and I'm getting good at it, but not as good as my grandfather was, for example.
Not even close, right?
Well, those engines were far, far different in the machinery.
It was way different where you could actually do some.
I tell you what, I don't know if you have the same thing.
I repair my stuff more than it's functional most of the time.
It's always broken, always needing repair, especially the mowers, four-wheeler, any kind of attachments.
It's either the...
The axles, the wheels, I don't care what it is.
There's always something.
Blowers, sprayers, everything is always on the mend.
And you'll understand that if you really start to put it for use and start to use it on a larger property, your stuff's going to be constantly needing to be repaired.
Absolutely, yeah.
No, I'm always repairing stuff, yeah.
Let me go back to the rice again.
Yeah, I know, that's it.
Having a farm, you become a repair master.
Right, right.
But just let me drive home the point here.
What you and I are both saying is that most of those parts come from China, or at least a very large portion of them come from China.
Even if it's a, you know, like I own Kubota equipment, which is Japanese, but a lot of Kubota parts are made in China.
I mean...
Especially the oil filter cartridges, diesel fuel, water separators, fuel filters, belts and everything.
It all comes from China.
And David, I had a John Deere tractor one time.
I was using it as a generator with a PTO generator and the belt broke.
Do you know how freaking hot a diesel engine gets when the fan stops blowing through the radiator?
That thing was smoking and I'm amazed that it didn't die, but I had a belt break in the middle of
Yeah, for me, voltage regulators, too.
Voltage regulators, you might not think that's an important thing, but that thing's about this big, and it is so important that that thing is not blown, or else the rest of your circuitry and electrical system is not functioning correctly.
That was all made in China.
They're not OEM.
But still.
Some of these things that aren't coming that we need just for the very basics, like you can't run a machine, at least in the modern era, unless the electronics are functioning correctly and it's all controlled by the smallest of devices that are all produced in China.
Yeah, exactly.
So let me swing you back here.
Speaking of being over in Asia, back to the method to the madness of the forecast here.
What I did is, after I got the countries that were struggling, that had over 20% crop losses, and gave me the reason why, and they gave me some media so I could chase down the leads if I wanted to dig further into the news articles, which I did.
I also ask it then, target the area in the country that is struggling most, and tell me, in that struggle area, what percentage of the country total production is that?
So, if you look at India and Pakistan, India is up in the north and west.
And then Pakistan is in the Punjab.
So I'm going to use these as good examples here.
Okay. In China, they only grow rice in the south, by the way.
They don't grow up in Heilongjiang, where it gets 50 below zero Celsius in the winter.
South China is where they grow the oranges and the rice.
So that's Pearl River Delta area south.
And then we've got Bangladesh, Vietnam.
And here's your 15 countries.
And Nigeria is down here, Madagascar, Brazil, and Spain, along with Sri Lanka.
So then you start to look in these areas, you know, which ones are having, like you say, economic problems or social unrest problems, which we've seen in the past.
So keep your eye.
Northwest in India and Pakistan, Punjab.
So then, you know, I'm a map fan anyway.
I knew these were already connected.
So I'm like, all right, this is the grow zone that's struggling to the southeast and also further into Pakistan.
Not being political, so if you're either from Pakistan or from India, this is just, I'm showing you the grow zone.
No politics intended here, okay?
So this area was a contiguous area, and then after the British left, they broke it up to cause problems by having people fight amongst themselves, and you can see how this still is.
But this grow zone is, they call it like the plains, and you can see where all the rivers are.
So you talk about one of the cradles of civilization was right in this area, Harappa.
And you go further, you know, many thousands of years ago, and Harappa was the cradle of civilization right here.
So you start to see how vast of a growing area it could be, and it was at one time.
And then look back, stand on the left there, look at the rivers coming out of the Himalaya.
All right, so there's your Punjab.
So that's the west it was talking about, Uttar Pradesh, Himshal Pradesh, Punjab.
And then you can see the maps where it's lining up.
So you know there's some drought areas in here in the Punjab.
So if that was 10% or 12% and they're producing 60% of the country in that area, then you can just do math at that point and see how these start to grind forward or backward in terms of production totals.
Wow. Yeah, so it's kind of easy.
And then the math, you know, if you're going to do this, say, 12% or 56%, probably around, I did the math earlier, somewhere around 7%.
Somewhere around 7% total loss.
And then, you know, obviously those periphery areas, that was just for the dark green right there.
So then if you start to get the periphery areas that are under 50 tons in area, well, how much are there?
They're also, it's not about just being a target over one city.
You got to realize this is a regional area.
Like if we have a drought in, let's say, the Midwest, it's not going to be targeted right over like Kansas City and that's it.
There's a periphery zone where it is.
So this is just, you know, the targeted area.
The losses, and you can see it's right over the highest concentration of rice production in Pakistan.
And here's the thing.
They already spend 45% of their wages on food.
For them, if the price of rice goes up 30%, 10%, 20%, that is an absolute powder keg right there if they can't control the food prices.
And we've seen many a time, Pakistan food riots.
Right. This is...
Okay, yeah, keep going.
Keep going.
You know, the affected regions and, you know, pulling it down into the specifics and then you start to get the maps and you're looking at the, again, you know, I wanted the full totals, the reason for it, the realistic loss from that, and then put this into the final table here, at least one of them.
So it gives you the country, the affected region, which is, you know, you go for that for at least the initial, you know, bullseye in your target.
And then if that's the regional loss of 15% to 20% out of that major producing area, then you can...
Pull it along here and see the total country loss of 7% to 10% coming out of India's rice crop this year, or at least 12% coming out of Pakistan's rice crop.
And then China's going to lose 7%, and Bangladesh at least 12%.
And I'm saying that Myanmar total is going to go well, well, well over 12% of the total country loss.
So these numbers need to be adjusted in themselves.
But you can see the method to it, and it's just...
Using AI in a different fashion to actually use the news that is up to date to this minute to be able to front run the USDA by three months or so.
Okay. Wow.
Yeah, so let me keep going.
And then, you know, what you do is, like I said, I'm a fan of maps.
I always have been.
I love ancient maps, modern maps, you know, anything from a couple hundred years ago.
So here's the rice growing, and then this is where the metal or the rubber meets the road, really.
Then you can start to get some real decent totals of how many million tons are coming out of these, right?
And how much area is being grown in these specific spots.
So if you look at the total number of hectares being grown in this western region, northwest, we've got 5.9 million hectares there, 2.6 million, almost a million out of Hirayana.
So altogether, you're looking at about 10 million hectares, and you multiply by, let's say, 2.4 to get the acres.
That's all being damaged rice production.
So then you've got to go, hmm, what's grown up there?
Now, rice is not just rice.
Corn is not just corn.
So basmati rice is the main rice crop that's being grown up there.
All right, so basmati.
And then you need to trace it back.
Which areas are the main basmati buyers?
Is there a market for that?
Who consumes that the most?
Is there a substitute?
And then the areas like Andhra Pradesh down there is the rice bowl.
That whole lighter green area from Arissa to Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu, that whole area there, that's what they call the rice basket.
So that's really a main concern area because that's a big one down there.
Then it's really just a numbers game.
So you just start adding it up.
So global rice output, 500 million tons.
That was 2023-24 from the Food Agriculture Organization from the UN.
So if we say, let's say, 500 million tons, we'll keep it the same for 2025, which the USDA did, then you just start subtracting all those totals there that we did.
So if you're going to take 5% off of that, 7% off, you know, then you start to get some better ideas.
Because this was only the 15 countries that were struggling of the major producers in the world.
Now, if you add up every other producer that's out there in the world, even if they give you like just 10 tons of rice, that counts as a producing nation.
That is the extra 150 million tons.
The U.S. is a major rice producer for what we consider Western countries, if you didn't know that.
We grow rice in the United States.
So that's in there, but we're not on those lists of major producers struggling.
So that extra 150 million tons, so you're like, wait, it's 500 million.
No, it's 350 million.
That extra 150 mil is the other countries that are of...
Smaller producers but added up to those extra 70 or 80 countries would give you the extra 150 million tons.
I was just concentrating on the top 20 or the top 15, top 10 largest because that is truly where the lion's share comes from.
So there's where we get.
So if we do just out of that top 15 losses of those countries, we're looking at that kind of at least 5% loss for the thing.
Wow. Yeah, and again, you know, let me go one more here.
So then you need to keep niching down on it here.
So go back in the past for a second, and let's take a look at some previous iterations of what happened when there was loss like this.
So 2007 and 2008, remember the financial crisis?
There was bans everywhere across the world, at least Southeast Asia.
You're not sending the rice out of here.
It is already upsetting the society where the price rises from the great financial crisis, and you are not exporting rice.
Export bans.
And then, you know, that just drove the price insane across the world.
Look at that.
The price has doubled to 1.5 times higher.
And those statistics are off from the World Bank and from the FAO.
So if you start to look at India and Vietnam and Thailand and Cambodia start doing rice bans again for export, the entire world is going to shift on its head, especially in these nations.
Then we got policy shifts.
Vietnam also, you know, again, policy shift.
Governments are going to shift policy to keep that food in their country, to protect their citizens, to make sure that their prices don't go up crazy, because then they're going to get overthrown like the Arab Spring.
So we saw that before.
We saw a lot of export restrictions on rice, right?
But David, this speaks to the growing global nationalism, which means cutting off.
World trade.
Cutting off world trade.
And I gotta say, it is world trade.
It's actually the efficiencies of trade that support the current global population.
And if you cut off world trade, you're going to lose a couple billion people to starvation and war.
But the export embargoes will come long before there.
The export restrictions will arrive so far before that happens.
That's another key indicator to look for.
If you start to see export restrictions for foodstuffs coming in country after country, that is going to be an indicator that there are going into some severe food shortages.
You don't do that unless you can't grow enough to export, and then you're trying to keep the prices down to keep the stability of the nation.
Yeah. And then you talked about a currency crisis.
I'm not even adding that in.
That could very well happen in many of these places.
So what we're looking at here is a cascading, like a domino effect series of events where Trump's tariffs are part of this, and they've set off this global cutting off of supply routes.
On top of that, you have all these factors, the pests.
And radical weather, perhaps geoengineering, that's going to crater crops, crop supplies all over the world, vastly increasing crop prices.
And as a result of then the lack of trade, many of these countries, well, let me ask you this, David.
I assume that the Asian nations will trade among each other.
China will still be trading with Korea and Vietnam and Indonesia.
Even Taiwan, etc.
Even if the US is out of the picture, the other countries aren't going to just go full nationalism, right?
Wouldn't they continue to trade grain?
You would hope so, unless the US has some export into that market or stranglehold on some sort of other nations that they can pull strings to restrict those types of foods going into different places.
Yeah. What?
It's an unknown.
But you mentioned the weather or the change in climate.
So here you go.
Now, this is a two-week change from they were going into neutral ENSO and possibly into a little sliver of El Nino coming up later on in August and September.
That's what they were predicting.
Pretty much neutral.
But a titch of possibility going toward El Nino.
And then this reversed itself in less than two weeks from a neutral ocean into...
You know, five to six degrees Celsius drop.
Not Fahrenheit, Celsius in two weeks.
This is the kind of things that really start to disrupt.
Like, you know, this is from Ryan Maui up there, and he put out the chart, and I was gobsmacked looking at this.
How do you change ocean, that much of an ocean coming off that was going into a warming phase?
Or a neutral phase coming out of La Nina and then boom, it slams back in there so quickly.
To change an ocean temperature of that radical, radical shift in two weeks is something they're all saying is because of different winds.
Okay, I'll say that's great.
I'm glad they were explaining the excuse.
Well, if the winds are that dramatically different, how do you think precipitation or moisture patterns are going to be for crop growing?
Do you think that'll be affected?
I think yes.
Right. Okay, all right.
So, where does this put us, then, as American consumers who, compared to the rest of the world, Americans spend a relatively small amount of their discretionary income on food.
But is that going to dramatically shift to where people have to, like, not buy cars so they can buy food?
Or how do you think this plays out?
I don't know.
Here's your consumer price index chart, and you can see where it kind of...
I wouldn't say Loch Ness monsters at the far right of the chart there, but it definitely continues to go up for food in cities, U.S. average.
So if that continues to creep up, and again, currency crisis would make this go vertical like it did from right around the COVID time.
You can see where that 2020 mark forward just went up through 2022 there.
If that were to happen again, a lot of people are stretched.
I'm not saying everybody.
There's always money out there.
Don't get yourself into this tizzy.
Or we're going to go into a Great Depression and everybody's going to shrivel in the back of the room.
You need to be able to use your mind and find these ways through the opportunities and the danger.
Just don't sit back and start shaking because of the information.
I'm bringing it out so you can weave your way through what you know is coming.
If we look at Japan's rice, I might work it backwards then.
Because for Americans, we pay, yeah, probably around 10% of our disposable income is for food, where Pakistan is 45%.
But then I was traveling in Japan, and I got to experience the rice shortages there when I was there last year, right at the end.
No, it was this year.
It was at the end of January this year.
And there were places that had signs out that said, no rice available.
Well, then Japan's rice price has been rising at record prices.
Like, look at that.
That's incredible.
Yeah, and that's a very developed nation, anything on par with anywhere else.
I mean, Japan's so high-tech.
Absolutely. And they can't grow their crops with their high-tech society?
Like, what is going wrong over there in terms of they're at the state of the art of everything from robotics, and everybody wants to give AI credence, like, oh, AI's going to run the farms, they're going to do this.
And they're at the height of that, and they can't grow rice.
What is going on?
Well, that's another thing, too, to think about.
I mean, if you want my answer to that question.
I would love it.
Yeah, you know, I've spoken to Michael Yan, who spends a lot of time in Japan.
You know, Michael.
I do.
You know, there's a demographic collapse in Japan.
It's getting far worse.
And the truth is, there are no young people to take over the farms, or virtually none.
They don't want to learn farming skills.
They don't have the hands-on skills.
They're all, you know, living on their mobile phones and electronic devices.
It's the same problem in America.
The existing farmers are the old-timers, and they're retiring or dying off.
And that's just what's happening in Japan.
And it's hard to work than you think.
I mean, Mike, you can attest to it.
It's not as easy to just go throw a seed in the ground.
Hey, cool, we're going to sit back in the sunset and have cocktails.
It is difficult work.
You know how tired I am some days I come in?
Like, I am just so sore from lifting stuff and pulling.
You know, we're in the springtime.
We're doing a lot of extra things right now.
I've got to go seed out before the rain comes in after we're finished today because we did a bunch of machine work because we had so many trees fall down.
This guy came in and ripped the stumps out for us.
We've got to reseed a couple acres.
But still, even with machines and trying to do stuff, it's not easy to do.
So older people are less productive at it because it's just genuinely physically difficult.
Yeah, absolutely.
And what I find in Texas is if you don't have...
Irrigation here is the key to everything.
And I'm fortunate enough to have a pond where I have a pump in it and I irrigate my orchards and everything using pond water.
But talk about digging ditches, laying pex pipe, putting in all the quarter-inch lines, all the drippers, and then fixing those when wild rats chew on them to get water out or whatever.
And forget the fencing, too.
How many post holes can you dig by hand with those post hole diggers?
Oh, man.
Forget it.
I don't even try it.
I don't know.
I got a machine for that.
I don't even try it anymore.
Yeah, right.
But most people don't.
That's the thing.
If you're going to lay out a fence across three acres or something and you do it by hand, it's going to take you weeks, plural.
Yeah, and you're going to have some sore-ass shoulder blades.
But you're going to build some muscle.
Yeah, just don't do it all in one day.
You'll be shocked that you can't move.
Yeah, you don't even need a gym.
And I will say another thing.
If you have a farm or helping somebody, you don't even really need a gym membership.
That's totally true.
I mean, the workout you're getting just like doing daily tasks is enough to overtake what you would probably be at the gym because you're lifting and using different kind of muscles that you would never use on like a weight machine.
That's true, yeah.
Functional strength.
Picking things up and twisting them and buckets of this in your hands.
You just would never find that kind of twisty or whatever, like moving stuff and wrenching and putting tines on blades and things.
Don't even get me started.
That's right.
That's right.
So, okay.
So the point is...
Wait, this is my last slide if I could here.
Yeah, go for it.
Go for it.
I mentioned Nigeria.
I think it was 13th or something on the list there as a rice grower that is struggling as well right now.
But notice what they did there.
On the right side, you'll see their old CPI, the way they calculated that, all the way through 2009, the old way that they did it.
They've just suddenly revamped that to bring the percentages down so it doesn't appear that your inflation is running at 35% per year or 20% per month.
So this is even happening in Nigeria.
So something's gone terribly wrong with their food production.
Now, we don't rely a lot on Nigerian oil.
But there's other places that rely on critical minerals.
And where does that take us then?
We've already seen the U.S. be removed pretty much out of the Sahel region.
And you've got to wonder, you know, when things are coming back in, if they're going to have food problems.
Maybe not so much because the rainfall is increasing in the Sahel.
But other nations, why are they revaluing or revamping how they calculate CPI?
See, everybody's terrified of prices going up.
So this will be another, you know.
Flame in the fire there of export controls.
You know, also, most of the world's cacao supply comes out of West African nations, as you know.
I think it's just four nations there that export most of it.
And in the West, you know, we love to eat chocolate, and that's going to become a luxury for the wealthy.
Like it was in the prior era.
People just didn't have chocolate or coffee.
It was only for kings, queens, noblemen, and those that could fund their ship voyages.
That's true.
Yeah, exactly.
That's where this is headed.
It's so clear.
So what should a person listening to this, what should they do to navigate this?
Well, I would take it in a multi-step approach.
First, find a bunch of diagrams from the Victory Gardens that the U.S. Army and our government put out for your grow zone, what we did in World War II, because those gardens were ultra-productive.
I mean, you look at the way that those things are precise, and they've done all these studies on which companion plants and which things would not shade out.
Those plants from the 1940s Victory Gardens are the best.
If you're going to do something in a small space, and then secondly, you're going to have to think about getting your seeds and getting tools.
You can make your own fertilizers.
I would definitely buy a composting book, would be another one to start getting on that.
But tools are going to be a thing.
Handles, I can't make a handle.
I can't.
I can put one back onto a broken tool that the handle broke off of, which also, by the way, is...
It's a little bit of a tricky business if you haven't done it a bunch.
You've got to drill down in there and pull stuff and chip it out, and then you can replace the handle.
But those kind of things, if you can go to estate sales, get older tools with better quality steel, that would be a very good first start.
For people who've never heard this information before, you're going to want to think about getting some plan to have a garden around your house.
And whether it be raised beds or how do you protect it?
Do you fence it in?
Animal pests to worry about.
I mean, anything that you can do.
And perhaps those safe traps are a good way to get a protein source.
I know a lot of people would say, well, the rabbits will go in there.
Yeah, well, the rabbits are good protein.
Squirrels get in there.
Well, yeah, squirrels good.
My grandma used to cook up squirrels when we were super toddlers, you know?
I mean, things like in the past, you might have to start it.
Now, I'm not going to go eating possum, but if I was hungry enough, I would.
But you could catch those possums and raccoons all.
Stay long in those safe traps.
So, you know, think about protein sources, too, in addition to, like, you can raise some birds.
Marjorie Wildcraft talks about the word bird raising in small areas, you know, quail and stuff.
You're going to need proteins.
I mean, you tell me what you would do.
Yeah, what would you do in addition to that?
I mean, I've got wild hogs and wild rabbits galore, okay?
Oh, me too.
Got to get rid of the rabbits.
Too many.
I, cause you know, I don't use any herbicides on my ranch.
And so what happened over all these years is that everything grew back, which meant massive habitat for rabbits, all these briars that the rabbits can hide in from the coyotes.
So we have rabbits galore, which is actually, that's part of my intention is I don't want to raise rabbits in hutches and I don't want to kill rabbits and eat rabbits unless I'm starving.
And then it's rabbit season.
You know what I mean?
I mean, I'll go out and hunt rabbits if I have to.
Yeah, and can you keep your property clean and plentiful enough?
Like, we don't hunt the deer here because they know to come here and stay here.
Yeah, same here.
We don't hunt deer.
No, I don't hunt anything except steal targets.
But if it comes down to it, there's plenty.
Plenty of things to shoot and eat if I had to.
But honestly, there's enough cattle ranchers around me that I just barter silver for beef.
But most people aren't in that position.
They really don't even know that you can barter for food or trade work for food.
The next thing to do maybe would be, my camera's freezing up again, to go see if you can find somebody who would allow you to trade some work.
And you get the experience, but you also get food in payment or some sort of that garden produce or eggs or something that's coming off the farm that's producing.
Just go out and spend some time and see if you can trade some time for somebody else to give you something from the land.
And try that first, because you'll get some skill.
You're going to learn right away if you like or you don't like something.
I know some people, they can't even go near a chicken coop.
That's cool because they love to work with plants.
So you're going to find your niche out somewhere.
Some people can't stand to go near a chicken coop?
What do you mean?
They just hate chickens?
Oh, because of the poo.
There's poo there.
Oh, you've got to clean the chicken coop.
Oh, no, there's poo.
You've got to clean it up.
Oh, they don't know that chickens poo, huh?
Or they freak out about it.
Yeah, right.
Well, they get near there and they're like, oh, there's poo around here.
They just pooed right there on the ground.
Wow. Well, good luck.
You know, good luck surviving starvation.
Wow. I'm just bringing that to the very basic first day freshman 101 class somewhere.
Get in there and experience something to know what it's like, what you have to do, what you like, what you don't like, and then really learn what you can.
I know these food price rises are coming, and I just...
My whole thing is I don't know if it's going to continue next year and then the next year and then the next next year because at that point, Americans won't be able to afford the food.
So is this a one-off, like you say, and will things revert back?
Yeah, if the supply chains get smoothed out, but then we have Mother Nature to contend with, and she seems to be a little angry right now.
The magnetic field is changing on our planet, and that's another thing I do believe the powers that be are trying to cover up.
Wow. The magnetic field change.
I mean, once the jet streams go out of their flow, I mean, that is very difficult to convince people that tomorrow is going to be brighter, like keep going to work, keep investing.
Yeah. Yeah, well, that's the trick, isn't it?
To convince people that there's a reason to stay a slave and keep paying taxes, keep contributing to a broken, failed, corrupt system.
It's your duty, Mike.
It's your duty.
Yeah, right.
I don't think so.
I mean, and the great thing about growing your own food is you don't pay taxes on it.
Think about it.
It's tax-free.
Now, if the IRS could figure out a way to tax your garden, they would.
There's no feasible way to do it.
They can't track it.
And they just can't send out tax collectors to look at all your gardens.
Probably they can do that in the UK.
I would imagine they tax everything in the UK because they tax televisions.
The BBC tax.
Yeah, the BBC tax your TV.
Like, how did you know I was watching it, you know?
Like, well, we have a detector from the street.
We have TV detector, full-time employees that run around doing that all over the UK.
I mean, but in America, that wouldn't fly.
All right.
So, David.
Appreciate it.
Thank you so much.
We're almost out of time.
Anything else you want to add?
Your channels, website, anything?
No, the Adapt 2030 channel, wherever you can find it.
And I'm also up there on Patreon with the Adapt 2030 channel.
And just trying to put more information like this.
So if you're out on Patreon with me, I'm going to be putting out every single crop analysis by crop.
So if you saw the rice one, okay, it's rudimentary.
But to put out each and every one of those by grain, by statistic.
And to put out these types of PDF, like 20-page PDF of each individual crops, then learn the methods so you can do it on your own.
It's just a different way.
A lot of people haven't taken AI to use it to the advantage of scraping through real-time news to get a better crop analysis than waiting for a crop tour once a year.
Yeah, right.
It's a different way to analyze the same data, but it's just faster using AI.
Okay. Well...
David, we appreciate you so much.
You're doing outstanding work.

More interviews and content at Brighteon.com and other Brighteon platforms.
Thank you for watching today.
Okay.
The economy's tough.
Trade embargoes are underway.
Trade wars.
The supply chain is taking a beating.
A lot of people are losing jobs right now.
So what are we doing to help you be able to afford clean food and high-potency nutrition?
Well, here at healthrangerstore.com, we've just launched a program called Buy More, Save More.
And if you go to healthrangerstore.com slash save.
That's all you have to enter in, healthrangerstore.com slash save.
You'll see that we have 209 products on this special program, which gives you an automatic discount coupon code when you purchase a higher quantity.
For example, Health Rangers Hawaiian Astaxanthin right here.
You click on that, and this is your normal savings of 29%, or you can go here and you can buy more, save more.
You can buy three, get 5%, buy six, You get 6%.
We don't have massive margins on these, by the way, but these savings are significant.
And then if you click, grab this deal, then it adds that to your shopping cart and it puts the discount code in there automatically.
So there's your discounted price.
Buy more, save more on all 209 products that we have available on this program.
Everything from chlorella to nascent iodine, concentrated mineral drops, as you can see.
Many, many items.
We've done this for you.
Now, you might ask, how can we do this when all these tariffs are kicking in on China, like 150% tariffs, and so imported products from China are going up in price?
Well, guess what?
We don't import anything from China except, I think, goji berries.
But we've been China-free in our supply chain, or almost 100% China-free, for many, many years.
So we are not impacted.
Buy these high tariffs from China.
Now, there are 10% tariffs on products from other countries, and we do source different materials from different countries just depending on the material.
For example, we get our non-GMO vitamin C out of the United Kingdom because we don't buy GMO vitamin C from China, which is the cheap vitamin C that everybody else sells.
So we have high-end non-GMO vitamin C. Yeah, it's more expensive, but it's not going up in price because we're not hit by the tariff.
So this is why we're able to put together these savings for you and actually pass along discounts at a time when almost all the other retailers are hiking their prices because they source almost everything from China.
It's kind of like the dirty little secret of the nutrition industry.
People getting everything from China, from herbs and vitamins and nutrients and amino acids and all of it.
Most of it actually comes from China, folks.
So that's going to get very expensive, but we're able to help save you money with this program.
Buy more, save more.
So check it out again.
It's at healthrangerstore.com slash save, and you can scroll down and see everything that we have available for you.
So many different solutions, everything from personal care products to here's Manuka honey, and here's our tooth salt, and here's whey protein.
And broccoli sprout powder high in natural sulforaphane, which is an amazing molecule.
You know, so much more, right?
Food supplements, storable foods, superfoods, personal care products, home care, all kinds of products available on this program.
Buy more, save more.
And trust me, you're never going to see lower prices than this for the future.
Because, well, you know, inflation, the dollar's collapsing, so everything's going up in price no matter what.
But thank God that our supply chain has banned Chinese suppliers for many, many years, you know, again, except for goji berries, which come from the Tibetan high-altitude regions of China.
So thank goodness we made that decision many years ago so that our products are not skyrocketing in price, even during this trade war.
So yes, you can stay healthy.
You can have outstanding nutrition, outstanding superfoods.
You can boost your preps during this trade war by shopping with us at healthrangerstore.com slash save.
