    They are definitely being underpaid with wholesale, but you often don’t get to set your price to the factories. The processing/distribution company tells you how much they are buying for, and you can either agree to sell at that price, or move on. Since there are only so many places who will buy that amount of food, you kinda need to suck it up.

      Sounds like farmers should focus on selling “to the people” again, and screw these greedy corporations who don’t give a fuck about farmers or other people, for that matter!
