🌾 🇺🇸 👨🌾 U.S. Farm Bankruptcies Surge +46% as Fertilizer Costs Squeeze Farmers:
The American Farm Bureau Federation reported 315 Chapter 12 bankruptcy filings in 2025, up from 216 in 2024 and the third consecutive annual increase.
The Midwest got hit hardest with 121 filings, a +70% jump.
The Southeast followed with 105, up +69%.
Together, those two regions accounted for more than two-thirds of every farm bankruptcy in the country.
Fertilizer prices are pouring gasoline on the fire.
Urea, the most widely used nitrogen fertilizer on the planet, has ripped +87% year-to-date and trades near $720 a tonne.
For corn growers who depend on nitrogen, this is a dire situation.
Many farmers are reporting they will cut the amount of fertilizer they use, shift from corn toward less nitrogen-dependent soybeans, or just take the yield loss.
Farms are under pressure.

The WHO now states on its website:
Vaccination against COVID-19 can trigger multiple sclerosis through cross-reactive CD4+-T cells that recognize the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and myelin peptides.
In other words: Your own immune system destroys the nerve pathways and then attacks your brain and spinal cord.
