Capitalistic Agriculture and the Family Farm Shift

The article analyzes the drift from large bonanza farms to family-sized plots and ponders a future where capital may enter agriculture. It notes rising land prices, improvements in science and machinery, and the potential for capitalists to profit by centralizing management on large tracts. It discusses wage pressures, access to capital, and the feasibility of monetizing farm expertise in a more consolidated system.
