According to the latest USDA census, conducted in 2022 and released just last month, total US farm acreage decreased by almost 20 million acres between 2017 and 2022. The United States lost 142,000 farms during that period. The data also showed that there are 300,000 farm producers (defined as “a person who is involved with making decisions for the farm operation”) younger than 35; 1.78 million between ages 35–64; and 1.29 million over 65.

Aesthetically, it seems to trigger something instinctual in certain male nervous systems. As I pull up to a red light on Seventh Street, the man in the car next to me rolls down his window and lets out an obligatory, high-pitched Rebel Yell. I return a single-thumb salute. Together we join the flow of lifted trucks and Jeeps with flags waving from the tailgates — not the little 9/11 garden-stick models, but heavy-duty mothers whose clapping sound does a damn good impression of a gunshot. Trump 2024, Don’t Tread on Me, and ol’ glory are all firing into the breeze as we shoot headlong toward downtown Phoenix, home of Turning Point USA’s annual AmericaFest. AmericaFest is …
