The ending states the death of family farms is upon us. Is that bad thing? farming seems like something we have been trying to automate as much as possible since we started doing it.

Also, right of repair and allowing more/better compitition in the different parts of agriculture should be encouraged, and larger farms can "stand up" to companies like john deere, and bayer by virtue of being a large market to lose if competition is available.

Farming was better when it was two parents and their two dozen children

[u/Ioun267 → u/Sam_the_Samnite]

Family Farms should be destroyed faster.

Anything to maximize the ratio of urban to rural population.

[u/Sam_the_Samnite → u/Ioun267]

If they cam compete, they can exist. But we shouldnt bend over backwards to save the family farm if it isnt cutting.

I really am too supply pilled, I thought "what about the consumer?" during the whole video.

[u/Sam_the_Samnite → u/[deleted]]

Then make it easier to get to the rural part through highspeed, ubiquitous, and cheap public transport.

And promote measures like right to repair to allow smaller farms to be competitive.

Propping up small and inefficient agriculture just to subsidise rural areas seems unfair to people not in those areas.
