    True. I think the only solution is growing your own veggies and only buying the ones you can’t grow. For example- i’ll buy few chooks and that’ll help me with my eggs supply also grow lettuce, beans etc. Now if everyone starts doing this, demand is reduce and supply will increase.

      Probably beyond the reach of most people, for example if you aren’t prepared to cull the chickens at some stage you’ll be feeding an aging flock that isn’t producing eggs for years. Feeding then properly is expensive unless you let them free range and feed them scraps which will in turn reduce the eggs they are likely to lay

      Homesteading and being self sufficient can be very expensive

      Food isn’t getting more expensive because of a lack of supply. It’s just greed. And covid and greed.
