Illinois Farmers Have Plenty to Boast About
The Census of Agriculture is the most complete account of U.S. farms and ranches and the people who operate them. Every Thursday USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service will highlight new Census data and the power of the information to shape the future of American agriculture. Most...

Most people think of corn and soybeans when they imagine Illinois agriculture. That’s not surprising, considering that The Prairie State ranked second in the nation when it comes to harvested acres for both of these crops in 2012. Our farmers harvested more than 21 million acres of corn and soybeans in Illinois during 2012. That keeps a whole lot of combines rolling each fall.
However, Illinois agriculture achievements expand way beyond just corn and soybeans. Our farmers produce a wide variety of crops and livestock. For example, you can probably thank an Illinois farmer when you open that can of pumpkin pie filling this Thanksgiving. With more than 12,500 acres, Illinois growers account for more than three-fourths of all pumpkins harvested for processing in the United States.
Also, to help you spice up your table, Illinois growers rank #1 in horseradish production, harvesting nearly 1,800 acres – more than half of all U.S acreage – of this vegetable in 2012. Horseradish has such a strong presence in our state that one of our towns, Collinsville, Illinois, is known as the Horseradish Capital of the World.
It is not only at the state level that our farmers lead the nation in many farming categories. Our counties rank high as well. For example, Mason County ranked first among all counties in the United States in acres planted to popcorn in 2012.
What unifies all of these crops is the Illinois soil. It is one of our best agricultural assets and our farmers take great care of it. There are 6.1 million acres of cropland on which no-till practices are used in Illinois. Another 7.7 million acres are under conservation tillage practices. Lastly, Illinois producers planted more than 300,000 acres of cover crops in 2012. All of these techniques help to preserve the great soil of Illinois for future generations of producers.

5 Fun Facts About Eau Claire's Horseradish Industry
When people think of Eau Claire and food, the first thing that comes to mind is probably cheese, beer, brats, and burgers. Certainly, those are staple foods of the area, but one thing that might not come immediately to mind is...

This could be the revival of the Great Northern Horseradish Raid of 1887. It could get ugly.

You can do what you want with your property. Not me saying you aren't farming right. Not me trying to kill off the population with Political Climate Science.

Indian Government's report on Assessment of Climate Change over the Indian Region: “Long-term observations (1891–2018) indicate a significant reduction in annual frequency of tropical cyclones in the North Indian Ocean basin.”
Global Warming in 1922, melting ice
Mark Twain's statement regarding arguing with stupid people would certainly apply here, except it is worse because you cannot even recognize that I am not arguing with you. I'm talking about a mistake made many years before you arrived on the ground.
And Shiva, no Mark Twain is not a Hollywood movie star.

Co2 coalition is a climate denial/misinformation organisation.
Who's killing off the population?
Actually not a bad idea if it started with killing off the climate denialists. After all, why should they destroy the earth for the rest of us? Their (in)actions will result in plenty more deaths in the future.
Too dumb to live.

And you are a climate hoaxer....
No such thing. This isn't an even contest between denialists and those who believe in science. You are posting deliberate misinformation. The scientific evidence for human climate change through industrialisation is overwhelming.

I believe in science. Just not your science. I agree it is undeniably evident that what Climate Hoaxers want to do to civilization is kill it off.
You believe in deliberate climate misinformation funded by organisations with a vested interest such as big oil. That isn't science but you are too dumb (or invested?) to realise.

But Big Oil was just presented in this thread as proof of Climate Change...
And all the government funded climate scientist have a very big vested interest in keeping their funding coming. Those policies that the Climate Hoaxers want to establish will kill more people than any slow climb in temperature.
The Russians are a very big supporter of Climate Hoaxing as they benefit from the West shooting itself in the foot energy wise.

What exactly is being accomplished by the left by orchestrating this whole climate change hoax? How and who does it benefit?
It's pretty clear why a company exploiting the earths resources and those with financial interests in that company would want to lie to you about the determent they are causing the environment.
But why would the other side want to lie to you about it? Scientific funding is a drop in the bucket compared to an oil companies yearly profit, so it's not that. Whose getting rich and powerful off this hoax as you call it?

And the biggest benefactor of Climate Change policies is the government.
Meanwhile, the US is marching down an idiotic path towards electric vehicle mandates with no plan on where to get the minerals for the batteries. Nor does president Biden have an reasonable plan for the infrastructure needed.
