[QUOTE="Brandonm2, post: 329026, member: 2095"] IF corn is too high to feed it, growing the chickens in Brazil won't be any better profit. A few corps grow most of the chickens and half the hogs. A corporation is just as liable too blow away in the wind as an individual farm. See MCI, Netscape, American Motors Corp, Allis-Chalmers, Pan-Am,... Tyson chicken and Smithfield Pork are business models based on getting corn based feeds cheap. If they have too pay double and triple for their feed; they have to ultimately pass that on to the consumer. I am the kind that if I WANT too grill a pork chop, I will go buy me a pork chop. Whether the price is $1.89 or $7.99 a lb isn't really a factor. Does the public as a whole buy like that though? We may find out. [/QUOTE]
