From here, I’ll integrate my previously-collected Oregon wine data, and then move into the other side of the California grape crop (raisins, table grapes), because I’m guessing that the price fixing activity might be lower.
Then I’ll integrate all of that into my master Wine article.
Then I’ll start assimilating other crops.
CALIFORNIA WINE

I don’t know how to do the math, but it’s the largest increase in bearing acreage yet in the data set, and it’s the largest decrease in yield. It’s the purportedly-harmless non-ionizing microwave radiation from what we euphemistically refer to as “wireless communications”, poisoning the ether.

The cell tower network, expanding with exponential speed, pushes the game the other way.
In 2000, Idaho’s Don Croft invented Orgonite, based upon previous work by the Austrians Wilhelm Reich and Karl Hans Welz. Don immediately began distributing it widely, with a significant focus on California.
These simple, inexpensive devices, comprised of a crystal of some kind enclosed in a 50/50 matrix of polyester resin and metal shavings continuously transform what Reich respectively called Dead Orgone Radiation into Positive Orgone Radiation, unknitting and transforming the ancient Death energy matrix which has been patiently built and expanded by our Dark masters all the way back to Babylon, and before.

Here we have the first evidence of price fixing in the wine industry. The crushed wine grape harvest increased by 6.3%, buoyed by a 1.5% increase in acreage and a 1.8% increase in grape yield…yet the stated wine yield decreased by 12.5%. I’m showing a 298% variance between that 6.3% increase and that 12.5% decrease but I’ll run that by somebody who knows about statistics.
Making things worse for these felons, from 2001 to 2002, the 12.5% decrease in California’s wine yield was 150% greater than its 5% decrease from 2000 to 2001.
Rest assured, we’ll keep an eye on this trend.
In its early stages, the Orgonite movement comprised Don and perhaps four or five others. I began gifting in 2003, getting my TB’s from Don Bradley, whom I later discerned was a double agent, like almost everybody else except Don.
It’s also key to remember that the Earth’s energy level began rising in earnest in 1995, heading toward the end of the Mayan “long count” in 2012. So wireless technology is a metaphorical dam, if you will, attempting to hold back the ever-increasing pressure.

From 2002 to 2003, California’s wine yield increased by 5.3%, from 1,231.7 to 1,297.2.
There’s no “capitalist supply and demand” in play here. Despite a marginally-increased bearing acreage, the volume and yield of crushed grapes is down by a huge margin, yet the wine yield gallons are 5.3% higher. And it’s not a “yield”, at all…it’s a production number. Why? Because it’s a gigantic machine, tuned to make money.
Because it is, wait for it, a Great Big Conspiracy, and the folks in charge are not your friends, and are lying to you about basically everything, including wine yields.

From 2004 to 2005, the 35.5% increase in California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 108% greater, or twice as large as it’s 16.9% increase in wine production during the same time period. What’s a literally-blood-drinking Illuminist to do in the face of hyper-exponentially increasing wine production and yields, except throw away half of the extra grape juice, or sell it off for other purposes, to artificially elevate the price?

From 2005 to 2006, California crushed wine grape yield decreased by 17.4%, from 8.473 tons per acre to 6.996 tons per acre.
This gigantic decrease in harvest volume and yield is the last gasp of the great Death energy-based storm steering and augmentation system which was used to pump up Hurricane Katrina in 2006 and steer it around the Gulf of Mexico like a bumper car directly into New Orleans in 2006.
(Hurricane Katrina, pumped up and steered into New Orleans like a bumper car, 2006)
For a brief moment, those horrific technologies worked as they were designed to. For example, from 2004 to 2007, Maine’s lobster fishery volume decreased by 9.8%, from 71 million pounds to 64 million pounds. Here we can clearly see the deleterious effects of wireless technology upon the ether coming into play.
But back to the wine crop in California.
In 2005, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,755,166 tons.
In 2005, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 445,527.
In 2005, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.473 tons per acre (3,755,166 vs. 445,527).
In 2005, California’s wine production was 690,600,459 gallons.
In 2005, I began making my own Orgonite and distributing it on Oahu. One night, as the first tray I poured was curing in the basement as I slept, a lightning bolt suddenly ripped the sky, seeming to me to be right on top of our little house. I’ve never seen lightning or heard thunder in the Palolo Valley before or since. The energy, the enviroment felt entirely different afterward.
It’s what Don Croft called a “confirmation”.
I used brass turnings from the machine shop at Pearl Harbor, and quartz crystals from Arkansas that my dad bought me for the effort.
From 2006 to 2007, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 3.5%, from 3,136,434 tons to 3,247,476 tons.
From 2006 to 2007, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .6%, from 448,288 to 445,774
From 2006 to 2007, adjusting for the .6% decrease in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 3.7%.
From 2006 to 2007, California’s crushed wine grape yield increased by 4.1%, from 6.996 tons per acre to 7.285 tons per acre.
See? The game has turned, just like I said.
In 2006, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,136,434 tons.
In 2006, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 448,288.
In 2006, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 6.996 tons per acre (3,136,434 vs. 448, 288).

From 2007 to 2008, California’s crushed wine grape yield decreased by 5.3%, from 7.285 tons per acre to 6.895 tons per acre.
Back and forth it goes! The harvest volume and yield have been driven down again by ever greater power running across ever larger networks, all running at maximum speed to try to keep the Death energy matrix intact. More and more Orgonite is being distributed, and we’re getting closer and closer to 2012, the year that the great Mayan “long count” comes to an end, and when the Hindu’s believe that the world will transform from the Age of Iron, from the Kali Yuga, to the Golden Age of the Satra Yuga.
Kali Yuga (Sanskrit: कलियुग, romanized: kaliyuga or kali-yuga) means “the age of Kali (demon)”, “the age of darkness”, “the age of vice and misery”, or “the age of quarrel and hypocrisy”.
In 2007, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,247,476 tons.
In 2007, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 445,774.
In 2007, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 7.285 tons per acre (3,247,476 vs. 445,774).
In 2007, California’s wine production was 610,795,124 gallons.
From 2008 to 2009, California’s crushed wine grape production increased by 20.9%, from 3,061,420 tons to 3,703,000 tons.
From 2008 to 2009, the 20.9% increase in California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 552% greater than its 3.2% long-term average annual increase from 1985 to 2018.
From 2008 to 2009, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by 1.2%, from 443,994 to 449,157.
From 2008 to 2009, the 20.9% increase in California’s crushed wine grape production was 1,641% greater than its 1.2% increase in bearing wine grape acreage during the same time period.
From 2008 to 2009, adjusting for the 1.2% increase in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape production increased by 20.6%.
From 2008 to 2009, California’s crushed wine grape yield increased by 19.6%, from 6.895 tons per acre to 8.244 tons per acre.
From 2008 to 2009, the 14.3% increase in California’s wine yield was 31.6% less than its 20.9% increase in crushed wine grape production during the same time period. In 2009, California threw away, or more correctly resold for other purposes almost a third a third of the hugely-burgeoning wine grape crop, to keep the prices artificially high. It’s an example of what is known as “price rigging”.
From 2008 to 2009, the 14.3% increase in California’s wine yield was 1,091% greater than the 1.2% increase in bearing wine grape acreage there during the same time period.
In 2008, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,061,420 tons.
In 2008, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 443,994.

From 2009 to 2010, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 10.6%, from 3,703,000 tons to 4,095,000 tons.
From 2009 to 2010, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by 1.8%, from 449,157 to 457,114.
From 2009 to 2010, adjusting for the 1.8% increase in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 10.4%.
From 2009 to 2010, California’s crushed wine grape yield increased by 8.6%, 8.244 tons per acre to 8.957 tons per acre.
From 2009 to 2010, California’s wine production decreased by 4.3%, from 674,401,565 gallons to 645,165,424 gallons
From 2009 to 2010, in the face of a gigantic 10.6% increase in the crushed wine grape harvest, California brazenly decreased wine production by 4.3%.
What’s California to do in the face of exponentially-increasing yields and grape harvests? Throw a gigantic proportion of the grapes away, or, more correctly, sell them to other people for other purposes, to artificially keep the price of wine elevated.
I don’t know how to do the math to explain how much they sandbagged, turning a 10.6% increase in crushed wine grapes into a 4.3% decrease in wine produced.
In 2009, California’s crushed wine grape production was 3,703,000 tons.
In 2009, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 449,157.
In 2009, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.244 tons per acre (3,703,000 vs. 449,157).
In 2009, California’s wine production was 674,401,565 gallons.
From 2010 to 2011, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 18.2%, from 4,095,000 tons to 3,346,941 tons.
From 2010 to 2011, California’s wine production increased by .2%, from 645,165,424 gallons to 646,524,784 gallons.
As you can see, wine production is not in any way connected to the volume of the crushed wine grape harvest. Capitalism as it has been described to you does not, in fact exist.
From 2010 to 2011, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by 1.1%, from 457,114 to 462,200.
From 2010 to 2011, California’s crushed wine grape yield decreased by 19.2%, from 8.957 tons per acre 7.241 tons per acre .
From 2010 to 2011, California’s wine production increased increased by .2%, from 645,165,424 gallons to 646,524,784 gallons.
In 2010, California’s crushed wine grape production was 4,095,000 tons.
In 2010, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 457,114.
In 2010, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.957 tons per acre (4,095,000 vs. 457,114).
In 2010, California’s wine production was 645,165,424 gallons.
From 2011 to 2012, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 20%, from 3,346,941 tons to 4,017,889 tons.
From 2011 to 2012, the 20% increase in California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 553% greater than its 3.2% long-term average annual increase from 1985 to 2018.
Here, right on time, we see the great positive changes commencing in earnest at last in 2012.
From 2011 to 2012, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .6%, from 462,200 to 459,391
From 2011 to 2012, adjusting for the .6% decrease in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 20.2%.
From 2011 to 2012, California’s wine production increased by 8.7%, from 646,524,784 gallons to 702,522,991 gallons.
From 2011 to 2012, California’s 8.7% increase wine production was 56% less than its 20% increase in crushed wine production during the same time period.
In the face of historically-unprecedented grape volumes, they sold close to 60% of the grape juice off for other purposes, to rig the price.
n 2011, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,346,941 tons.
In 2011, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 462,200.
In 2011, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 7.241 tons per acre (3,346,941 vs. 462,200).
In 2011, California’s wine production was 646,524,784 gallons.
From 2012 to 2013, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 5.7%, from 4,017,889 tons to 4,244,890 tons.
From 2012 to 2013, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by 2.3%, from 459,391 to 469,790.
From 2012 to 2013, adjusting for the 2.3% increase in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 5.6%.
From 2012 to 2013, California’s wine production increased by 8.5%, from 702,522,991 gallons to 762,353,065 gallons.
From 2012 to 2013, the 8.5% increase in wine production in California was 33% greater than the 5.7% increase its its crushed wine grape harvest during the same time period. As you can see, the “law of supply and demand” as it has been explained to us does not, in fact, exist.
From 2012 to 2013, the crushed wine grape yield in California increased by 3.3%, from 8.746 tons per acre to 9.035 tons per acre.
2013, baby. 2013 is the year that I began writing this series of articles, “Positive Changes That Are Occurring”, on Don Croft’s old Etheric Warriors forum.
In 2012, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 4,017,889 tons.
In 2012, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 459,391.
In 2012, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.746 tons per acre (4,017,889 vs. 459,391)
In 2012, California’s wine production was 702,522,991 gallons.
From 2013 to 2014, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 8.3%, from 4,244,890 tons to 3,892,796 tons.
From 2013 to 2014, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .8%, from 469,790 to 466,016.
From 2013 to 2014, adjusting for the .8% decrease in bearing wine grape acreage, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 10%.
From 2013 to 2014, California’s wine production decreased by 2.9%, from 762,353,065 gallons to 739,488,195 gallons.
Here, you can see how, when grape production decreases, wine production decreases, albeit to a far lesser extent. The science of the price rigging will be easily described by an expert in statistics, however I’ve done more than enough to bring attention to it here.
From 2013 to 2014, California’s crushed wine grape yield decreased by 7.5%, from 9.035 tons per acre to 8.353 tons per acre.
In 2013, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 4,244,890 tons.
In 2013, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 469,790.

In 2013, California’s wine production was 762,353,065 gallons.
From 2014 to 2015, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 4.8%, from 3,892,796 tons to 3,704,570 tons.
From 2014 to 2015, California’s wine production decreased by 9.6%, from 739,488,195 gallons to 668,961,196 gallons.
From 2014 to 2015, the 9.6% decrease in California’s wine production was 100% greater, or double the 4.8% decrease in the crushed wine grape harvest during the same time period.
Using the guise of “a poor season”, they’re brutally cutting back on the supply, to increase the price. It’s called “price fixing” or “price rigging”.
From 2014 to 2015, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .4%, from 466,016 to 464,275.
From 2014 to 2015, California’s crushed wine grape yield decreased by 4.5%, from 8.353 tons per acre to 7.979 tons per acre.
In 2014, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,892,796 tons.

In 2014, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.353 tons per acre 3,892,796 vs. 466,016).
In 2014, California’s wine production was 739,488,195 gallons.
From 2015 to 2016, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 8.8%, from 3,704,570 tons to 4,031,146 tons.
From 2015 to 2016, California’s crushed wine grape yield increased by 9.9%, from 7.979 tons per acre to 8.765 tons per acre
From 2015 to 2016, the 9.9% increase in California’s crushed wine grape yield was 560% greater than its 1.5% long term average annual increase from 1987 to 2018.
From 2015 to 2016, California’s wine production increased by 6.3%, from 668,961,196 gallons to 711,518,688 gallons.
From 2015 to 2016, the 6.3% increase in wine production in California was 26% less than the 8.5% increase in the crushed wine grape harvest during the same time period.
They’ve gotten rid of a quarter of the increased production, by either selling it for other purposes or simply by throwing it away, with the root purpose of keeping the price of wine artificially high.
From 2015 to 2016, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .9%, from 464,275 to 459,898.
In 2015, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,704,570 tons.
In 2015, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 464,275.
In 2015, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 7.979 tons per acre (3,704,570 vs. 464,275).
In 2015, California’s wine production was 668,961,196 gallons.
From 2016 to 2017, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by .4%, from 4,031,146 tons to 4,013,683 tons.
From 2016 to 2017, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by .2%, from 459,898 to 460,706.
From 2016 to 2017, California’s wine grape yield decreased by .6%, from 8.765 tons per acre to 8.712 tons per acre.
California’s wine production increased by 3.5%, from 711,518,688 gallons to 736,687,449 gallons.
A .4% decrease in the wine grape harvest, and then a 3.5% increase in wine production. That’s a 111% swing, I believe. It’s more blatant evidence of market rigging.
In 2016, California’s wine production was 711,518,688 gallons.
In 2016, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 459,898.
In 2016, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.765 tons per acre (4,031,146 vs. 459,898)
In 2016, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 4,031,146 tons.
From 2017 to 2018, California’s crushed wine grape harvest increased by 5.1%, from 4,013,683 tons to 4,218,684 tons.
From 2017 to 2018, California’s bearing wine grape acreage increased by .2%, from 460,276 to 461,289.
From 2017 to 2018, California’s wine production decreased by 2.1%, from 736,687,449 gallons to 720,544,929 gallons
From 2017 to 2018, the 2.1% decrease in California’s wine production was 141% less than its 5.1% increase in its wine grape harvest during that same time period.
It is continued evidence of price rigging in the California wine market.
In 2017, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 4,013,683 tons.
In 2017, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 460,706.
In 2017, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 8.712 tons per acre (4,013,683 vs. 460,706).
In 2017, California’s wine production was 736,687,449 gallons.
From 2018 to 2019, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 7.1%, from 4,218,684 tons to 3,919,146 tons.
From 2018 to 2019, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by .2%, from 461,289 to 460,218.
From 2018 to 2019, California’s crushed wine grape yield decreased by 6.9%, from 9.145 tons per acre to 8.515 tons per acre.
From 2018 to 2019, California’s wine production decreased by 2.2%, from 720,544,929 gallons to 704,578,616 gallons.
From 2018 to 2019, California’s 2.2% decrease in wine production was 69% smaller than the 7.1% decrease in its crushed wine grape harvest during the same time period.
It is continued, ongoing evidence of price rigging within the California wine industry, executed to keep prices artificially high, by collective, unspoken, conspiratorial agreement among every last person in a leadership position within the wine industry.
In 2018 California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 4,218,684 tons.
In 2018, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 461,289.
In 2018, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 9.145 tons per acre (4,218,684 vs. 461,289)
In 2018, California’s wine production was 720,544,929 gallons.
From 2019 to 2020, California’s crushed wine grape harvest decreased by 13%, from 3,919,146 tons to 3,410,886 tons.
From 2019 to 2020, California’s bearing wine grape acreage decreased by 1.5%, from 460,218 to 453,415.
From 2019 to 2020, California’s wine production decreased by 9.6%, from 704,578,616 gallons to 635,477,242 gallons.
From 2019 to 2020, California’s 9.6% decrease in wine production was % less than the 13% decrease in its crushed wine grape harvest during the same time period.
The price-rigging activity is constant, and could occupy a book of its own. It will be particularly instructive when I integrate Oregon’s wine growing data into this document.
In 2019, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,919,146 tons.
In 2019, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 460,218.

In 2020, California’s crushed wine grape harvest was 3,410,886 tons.
Note to self: must check out the other side of the wine market…table grapes, raisins…it’s on the same annual report.
Then on into almonds, I believe, building data on all the crops, over the years.
In 2020, California’s bearing wine grape acreage was 453,415.
In 2020, California’s crushed wine grape yield was 7.522 tons per acre (3,410,886 vs. 453, 415).
