Language: English

Synopsis:
Behind America’s breadbasket lies a story of power, profit, and resistance. Industrial agriculture has left Iowa and beyond with polluted water, rising cancer rates, and ecosystems in decline—while corporate interests block meaningful reform. At the same time, the farmers who feed the nation are losing control over their own tools, trapped by John Deere’s repair monopoly.

But the revolt is not just in the fields. Inside John Deere’s factories, workers staged one of the largest strikes in decades, demanding fair wages and a share of the record profits. From towns burdened with toxic nitrates to union picket lines and the right-to-repair movement, this documentary reveals a system in crisis—where profit comes before people, and where both farmers and workers are pushing back.

This is not only about agriculture—it’s about who controls America’s land, labor, and future food system.
