The farmers would never sell to you. There are some unwritten rules that they follow.

So you are telling me all these farmers that "are barely making end meet" wouldn't jump at the opportunity of turning more profit?

Have you ever tried to buy from a fisherman in the basin? It is what I imagine what a drug deal would be like. If you get one to agree to sell you a sack it is done on the down low. Almost like thye are under contract to the wholesaler.

Can you guarantee to move the volume that the big wholesalers move? If not, farmers are selling to you. These wholesalers supply the largest markets…. Houston, New Orleans, Dallas, etc
