If that's your answer then you're vastly underestimating how much farmland there is. We have 1.6 million small farms, averaging a couple hundred acres. Large farms usually have a couple thousand acres.
If every farm in the US was around 3000 acres, we would still have a quarter million farms. Even 100k acre mega farms would leave us with 8000+ farms.
"“Seed, chemicals or fertilizer, it’s all in the hands of a few companies that are the only game in town."... "“They all tell me they’re aware of a monopoly problem, and they don’t deny it exists. But they do nothing."
sorry, when I said "thousands of small farms" I meant thousands of small companies producing Seed, Chemicals and Fertilizer.. as well as actually growing plants and animals.
So if that's the actual problem, what's the motivation for preserving small farms? Those small farms are still being supplied by those large suppliers.
