For those of us who haven’t been introduced to Bio Mass fermentation, here is a short description. Bio Mass fermentation is the capture of plant matter gases which in turn is/are enhanced and used in Bio Fuels.

If you live in a community of farms you drive by, on a regular basis, farms of wheat, corn, cotton soybeans and several different varieties of grasses, all can be used in Bio Mass Fermentation.

This morning I was sitting enjoying my coffee and watching the agnews, the anchor were talking about how the wet weather had affected this year’s farm crops and how the Louisiana sugar cane crops were down this year and how rust was invading the 504 sugar cane which was suppose to be resistant to rust, in the end the anchor were discussing the fact that our sugar may come from Mexico this year because of the plight of the Louisiana sugar cane. Be ready to pay more for sugar.

The next segment was a discussion on the commodities market, what was up, what was down. One topic was about that we didn’t need wheat in the states we had plenty, so you know what that means folks, the price of wheat will go down as far as commodities go.

What I am leading up to is the last segment of the agnews broadcast  in which the anchor discussed the fact that the United States is considering buying Bio Mass from other countries such as Brazil. My reaction to this was “Do what?” I just sat through a news program that was discussing our farming community’s plight with the wet weather and the sugar cane problems of Louisiana.

Now true we need to keep a diplomatic friendship with other countries but what happened to let’s take care of our own first. This country was built on the blood, sweat, and tears of people who independently took care of themselves and their neighbors.

The Bio Mass that is used is the leftover plant that sits in the fields after harvest. The farmer can sell the leftovers to the Bio Mass companies as an extra income outside of their crop.

So my question is ‘Why?’ when we have farmers here in our own country who will be taking losses because of the rain and the disease to plants because of the rain, would our government buy Bio Mass fuel from other countries? Why wouldn’t our government buy from the farmers here to counter their losses, it might not cover all losses as a whole but it would help and the expense to us as consumers would be lessened because it is not being shipped here from overseas.

Ask yourselves these questions and run, don’t walk to your phone and/or computer and contact your congress and let them know you want a vote of NO to the import of Bio Mass fuels from other countries, we can make the Bio fuel here we don’t need to buy it from overseas.
