Bill: Hash oils are often distilled from rope hemp tops- supposedly not the best but still marketable and used as medicine in India and middle east. Large farms will continue to use chemicals and big machines, but a little of French pattern subsidies for small farms would encourage some more people to get back to country, Farmers markets would increase a bit also, small scale food processing food would increase in some areas, medium/large scale gardening would increase in some areas and lesson demand from large irrigated farms in southwest and mexico. This wouldn't be a huge change overall, but would help a bit. Some examples strangly enough are Cuba, Bulgaria, Rumania- Factory farms/collectives that lost Russian chemical supply, oil, markets reverted somewhat to organic/traditional farming practices because they couldn't continue intense market cropping. Ukraine farming was featured couple months back in sunday paper- noted feature was military transport and troops leased to farms, pasture graze instead of feedlots, increased vegatables grown on large farms as part of rotation. Ukraine isn't going hungry overall, not sending rye and wheat to Russia, has some small cheese factories starting, taking lessons from Poles on meat processing for markets. Something to think about.
