If they only had some kind of guild or something…

The guild is the problem being solved. Didn’t think that through.

Thought you were against guilds? A little while ago they were on your “not friends” list.

Who Is The Friend?

Annnnnd stifle innovation and foster exclusivity. No different than a guild.

Do you know what the UFCW is?

Is this where we start parsing every word and go to the 100 question tactic?

It appears you are claiming these ranchers are forming some sort of guild/union. Is that what you are claiming?

I guess I don’t get the hubbub or believe they’ll get costs down if they’re trying to compete with the big boys. Article seems like an ad for a new processor more than anything. Anyone interested already got a deep freezer and a farmers market or friend connection, everyone else happy with those walmart choice cuts.

WuWei · 2021-10-17T02:16:16.428Z

They aren’t trying to get the cost down yet.

local business, local control as opposed to exporting jobs to Kansas …

They can charge a little more with that quality angle they are talking about. And some good pictures of happy cattle lol.

Looks to me like a cooperative or a collective of some sort.

there are lots of different kinds of farming co-ops, it should work just fine. great idead too, better for farmers, better for consumers.

WuWei · 2021-10-17T14:53:19.969Z

What does “co-op” stand for?

An innovative idea…I hope it works.

its a cooperative venture between ranchers. great idea. owners taking control of the means of production.
