Buckwheat groats quality declines

Buckwheat turned to shit recently, is it crop shortages or improper storage/transportation? It also smells different...
Both Ukrainian & Russian buckwheat from current crops.
I can't bear eating even a spoon. Are they using some new pesticide chemicals?
If there is new chemicals used, why everything else hasn't changed its smell/texture/etc? Mystery is afoot.

Seems to be a global problem, weather ruining crop quality.

Huge decline in Wheat production:

Intense heat withered crops in recent months across the world's most important export hubs of the Black Sea, Canada and Europe, catching trading firms by surprise and leaving buyers facing shortages and potential output cuts at flour mills.

American crops turning to hay!!! Why isn't this a big story is US??
---
The drought is already affecting how farmers handle their crops and livestock. Farmers on both sides of the U.S.-Canada border have already taken to the rare measure of baling up their wheat, barley and other food crops to sell as hay.

The emergency bales of hay are providing much-needed forage for livestock operators who are struggling to keep their herds and flocks fed despite the lack of available pasture and the soaring costs of feed.

In North Dakota, hay crops have shrunk dramatically to 10 to 25 percent of normal levels. This has already forced cattle ranchers to significantly reduce their herds by boosting animal sales at auctions.

Corn quality declined massively:

“We had a lot of fields die prior to black layer and when that happens you’ve had a tremendous amount of stalk cannibalization and you’ve got a really weak stalk and a generally unhealthy root system.”

He tells Brownfield farmers need to assess stalk quality to determine which fields to get out first. “Some of these plants are being held up by the skin of their teeth, so to speak,” he says. “And any storm event during fall will be devastating, I’m afraid, to harvestability and standability to the corn crop.”

chemicals confirmed, last year crop

Market players are reporting increased glyphosate levels in Russian buckwheat shipments

I seem to recall buckwheat back 3-4 years ago was much better,
2020 buckwheat was so-so, but 2021 is animal-feed-tier shit.

You eat buckwheat? Isn't that for animals and pillows?

>>7 More precisely:
2021 is shit, won't buy anymore. All buckwheat turns to bland grey mush & lacks normal buckwheat smell(its strange faint smell is probably some chemicals or bacteria..).
2020 buckwheat was shitty texture(easily turns to mush), but at least it didn't smell bad and was somewhat edible, but less nutritious(i think).
I've switched to Far East russian buckwheat at the time(which was unaffected by changes at the time), because i don't tolerate quality declines.
2019 buckwheat was decent, but somewhat less tasty.
2018 was fine, i think no major changes.
2017 was great, esp. Far East russian buckwheat, probably due hybridization with tartary buckwheat or something: it was much tastier & nutritious at the time.

Buckwheat is gluten-free, cheap & has many anti-oxidants,
its linked to anti-aging effects too. I can't recommend current stuff though. In US buckwheat is much less popular than Europe, but variety & health shops usually sell it as 'kasha'/'buckwheat groats'.

Foreign matter has been found in five unused vials of Pfizer Inc.’s COVID-19 vaccine in two cities near Tokyo and one in Osaka Prefecture, local governments said Tuesday.

The vials containing a white floating matter belong to the same lot, FF5357, according to the cities of Sagamihara and Kamakura, both in Kanagawa Prefecture, and Sakai in western Japan.

The three cities have asked Pfizer to analyze the substances.

The contaminants were discovered at three vaccination sites in Sagamihara between Saturday and Tuesday, one site in Kamakura on Sunday and one site in Sakai on Tuesday.

I accidentally posted this yesterday here, before going to sleep.
I hope its not spike protein shedding, since i noticed a few memory lapses and lot more typos(my entire family is vaxxed) than usual: that this can be blamed on sleep deprivation too.

Cockroaches don't eat the new buckwheat. Wtf.

>>13 For the record they eat cardboard & glue.
They swarm any leftover food. They successfully resisted
a 3-year chemical warfare in our house, while eating all the baits.
But this buckwheat pot is untouched, they briefly walk over it
as if it was landmines & scurry away.

Day 2: Cockroaches ignore the buckwheat pot placed in dark place with lots of them. Normally they'd swarm leftover buckwheat.
