I homestead, but did and still do farm, then, when I was operating machinery and harvesting organic produce on 500acre plot and now, 25acre plot, the profit is very little. I was contracted as a caretaker and paladin for the land surrounding my property because so many idiots think polluting the environment for profit is swell.

Farming is very hard work, very expensive and very risky.

The barrier of entry for farming use to be open to all but most have been squeezed out by big business and inflation—people like Chabadnik Bill Gates then buy up everything and we are left with mRNA in lettuce and synthetic tracking spores on spinach. Of course, none of these people do the work THEMSELVES, just 2-Bit Shysters and Hucksters who beat YOU, the normal person, out of what is YOURS and out of what we should and can produce as normal human beings. That will NEVER change, no matter the "-ism" because someone controls our labor through the money they own and issue. It's just that people want more and more without giving back. How many youngsters know how to garden?

In my area, twenty years ago there were quadruple the amount of goat farms then there are now. The money just isn't there, and more and more people are moving to the city, which makes agriculture work harder for less to feed more and more people who produce poop, piss and trash.

Big business agro is disgusting though, still people will buy and eat disgusting.

Farming is very hard work, very expensive and very risky. Every farmers I know is older (50+) and looking to get out in the next 10 years. Finding someone who wants to take over the farm that is not family is next to impossible. On top of that finding labors for the farm is also next to impossible. And I don't mean hard, I mean impossible!

100%. However, regenerative farming on small plots for local projects for profit is still farming. I see a lot of young adults going this route, and the liberal towns are supplying grants to anyone who wishes to try it.

Respect for the faming trade is at a perthitic low despite the absolute necessity of it. I would go as far as to say its the most important of all trades. People are in for one hell of a wake up call...

Now we can eat bugs and lab grown veggies and meat from Israeli startup companies... yum!!!

As for this Dutch farming thing, I sort of agree that they should take a regenerative approach, and focus on organic solutions where harmful chemicals and synthetic fertilizers that deplete the soil are prohibited.

Lots of farmers who work 24/7 are on food stamps too.

I've always called for non-tracking UBI FOR FARMERS! That is the only way people will be able to afford farming, instead we subsidize wall street and big business that poisons our people. Yes, that's it, it is better we live in an unsustainable meme make-work economy where the billionaires fatten themselves up and the lazy don't know how to plant a tomato plant yet produce only garbage, stinking up the cities and doing a great service to technocratic impact/vale market corporations.

As for Every-ism: Allowed fake vote to buy from Limited Inc., then shot when you complain on sub-standard services. Same with fascism & capitalism.

Capitalism & the "american dream"...no god, no real churches, no farming, no soul...just money. Always the money, only the money on nu-age Judaeo-masonic naturalism.

Or a better future... Public banks (county-based banks; non-private ie. moving private credit) should issue experimental Universal Basic Income (illegal for a state sub-franchise such as Massachusetts Inc., to do so) so as to increase basic cred flow to suppressed areas, which will increase spending and automatically create small corps for retail products.

Farming might come back in style if normal people could afford to do it + local distribution; though big companies are not fond of small distribution from small companies.

It would also alleviate Soc.Sec. admin/book problems and take pressure off the courts/prisons. MAYBE.
