The video attached, by #BlackbirdCoop aka FarmingWhileBiege breaks down the side of the farming industry that they don't want you to know. While there may be some mom and pop farmers, who are struggling, those farmers are few and far between.

Again, all credit to @BlackbirdCoop

This guy usually annoys me but he crushed this one. She left it wiiiiiide open for critique and he came in smart. Not all farmers are as affluent for sure. Many are buried in generational debt. I know some personally… at the end of the day none are destitute. There is always someone who will buy large swathes of land at around market price and they will be able to modify their life and be fine. My friend sold his farm land that was in decline and went on privateislandsonline.com and bought an island and moved there with his family and is doing great.
