Because of the regulatory structure of American farming, Iowa is essentially 7/8 covered in shit.

    The "Food Barons" Jacking Up Your Grocery Bill with Austin Frerick
    
    Listen to this episode from Factually! with Adam Conover on Spotify. Whether you're at the grocery store or a restaurant, food is becoming obscenely expensive. It's easy to point to inflation as the sole culprit, but that's only a narrow view of a much bigger picture. For years, the food industry has been falling to monopolists who have been edging out independent farmers. Food quality has gone down, prices have gone up, and it has been a shocking disaster for the environment. This week, Adam speaks with Austin Frerick, an expert on agriculture and antitrust policy, a fellow at Yale, and author of Barons: Money, Power, and the Corruption of America’s Food Industry.

  @adamconover Can confirm. Father was hog farmer. There is so much manure.
  Most waterways and bodies of water I have encountered here are not doing well. Local government very captured, Feds bodies kept it in check a lil bit, but with Chevron discarded they are probably kneecapped and big ag cos will be taking them to court now I'd bet, so the shits just getting deeper most likely
