COVID-19 misinformation persists amid vaccines and public debate

A long view on COVID misinformation shows a shift from fear and denial in 2020 to vaccine focused myths in recent years. PolitiFact notes the 2020 Lie of the Year downplays COVID, while current claims on vaccines, fertility, DNA, and blood safety circulate widely. Experts cite trust dynamics, political alignment, and social media as drivers, with vaccination rates and public sentiment evolving as boosters and new variants unfold.

Biofuel push risks dethroning corn as king of U.S. crops

The article notes a potential shift in U.S. farming away from corn toward soybeans driven by green diesel demand and Biden administration subsidies. It cites rising soybean crush capacity, planned expansions by Cargill and Bunge, and favorable soybean prices amid plentiful farmers’ cash reserves. Farmers’ preference for corn due to rotation and earlier planting tempers the shift, with 2024 acreage projections showing soybeans up but corn still ahead. Strong entities include Sccular Co, Cargill, Bunge, NGFA, Bloomberg estimates, Informa Plc, Shell Rock Soy Processing, Advance Trading Inc.
