Dwindling Mississippi Grounds Barges, Threatens Shipments

“…The largest US barge operator warned customers it won’t be able to make good on deliveries. Ingram Barge Company declared force majeure in a letter to customers due to “near-historic” low water conditions on the Mississippi, the top route to get US grains and soybeans to the world market…”

Low water conditions hurt commerce, but that does not make them uncommon or catastrophic.

Coming on top of Biden’s war on fuel prices and truckers, it hurts a lot. California wants to ban diesel big rigs. Democrats indulge in delusion to virtue-signal to their friends.
