Skywatch Friday – South Dakota Skies

Soybean Sky Edit

South Dakota is truly part of the breadbasket of the world. As far as you can see and for miles beyond is soybeans like this field or corn. To most of us it is just a matter of patriotism when our government announces possible sanctions of agricultural exports to Russia for their misbehavior to Ukraine. To a lot of farmers it means a possible loss of markets and lower prices for their crops. Nothing is cost free.

    Like most of the food producing areas of our country, the sky just goes on forever. Most of us never consider how our foreign policies impact local or regional economies. Some days I’m not sure that our federal officials consider all of the consequences either.

    Beautiful! You’re right about the impact on our farmers and ranchers. They’re the hardest working, most patriotic people I know and they go through a lot to earn a buck. I know I couldn’t do it.

    Such drama in that sky!

    Yep, there’s no easy solution to the Vladimir Putin problem, is there? If we do something, lots of people will say we did the wrong thing. If we don’t do something, lots of people will say we did the wrong thing.
