One more bird pun that bad and I'm going to roadrunner you out of town on a rail.

(For the non-birders out there, yes, a rail is another type of bird. Sorry, not sorry, @hntdove.bsky.social )

Total soybean product exports were just over $40 billion in 2022. (Beans, meal, oil) Even with producer markups, the administration's math isn't mathing. 2/2

There are about 270,000 soybean farmers in the U.S. If you spread the $12 billion evenly among them, that's going to be a bit over $44,000 per farm. Don't think that's going to make up for their lost revenue. 2022 production and pricing showed total farm income from soybeans was $63 billion. /1

I'm definitely NOT going to add wood-grain paneling to my Subaru Outback! (And, yes, my wife insists it's a station wagon.)

Easy...Yosemite. Doubt I'll get back there next year but climbing Half Dome is still on my bucket list.
