I am worried about food in the countryside too, if anything breaks down too far. Most rural people in the USA have lost the skills to grow their own food. And most farms in the USA ( that are not owned by companies) are now owned by families that inherited them, and they don’t have as much knowledge as their grandparents, and would have difficulties .

So, yea, food insecurity if many parts of those very convoluted supply chains have trouble
