88% of farms in the US are small farms.

88% of farms in the US are small farms.

99.7% of businesses in the US are listed by the government as "small business". Therefore, there is literally no problem with entrepeneurship in America.

Family farms play a dominant role in U.S. agriculture. In 2015, these farms accounted for 99 percent of U.S. farms and 89 percent of production. On family farms, the principal operators and their relatives (by blood or marriage) own more than half of the business’s assets—in short, a family owns and operates the farm.

In 2015, 90 percent of U.S. farms were small family operations with under $350,000 in annual gross cash farm income (GCFI)—a measure of revenue that includes sales of crops and livestock, Government payments, and other farm-related income. These small farms, however, only accounted for 24 percent of the value of production. By comparison, large-scale family farms with at least $1 million in GCFI made up only 2.9 percent of U.S. farms but contributed 42 percent of total production. Nonfamily farms accounted for only 11 percent of agricultural production.

Most large-scale U.S. farms in 2015 were family operations: over 90 percent (about 59,000 farms). Among the 6,300 large nonfamily farms, about 1,760 were organized as corporations, with almost all of the rest organized as partnerships among unrelated individuals; as cooperatives; or as farms operated by hired managers on behalf of trusts, estates, families, or institutions.

Most of the large nonfamily farms that were organized as corporations had 10 or fewer shareholders. Corporations with more than 10 shareholders operated a few hundred large U.S. farms, or about 0.5 percent of all large U.S. farms. Large corporations play an important role in setting procurement standards and organizing supply chains for farm products, but they directly operate very few U.S. farms.

More cited evidence to refute pisspuss's horseshit claim,

Couldn't agree more. You can blame the FDA and Farm Acts for the current situation. Farming on anything less than an industrial scale is now impossible.

Still waiting on your very fucking first cited argument to back up your debunked claim that Monsanto is the only farmer in America.

Go smoke some more weed, watch some more netflix documentaries, and come back to us with jack fucking shit like everyone knows you will.

You do understand that this definition makes Walmart a 'family business', right?

Oh look. 42% of your food comes from 2.9% of farms. How strange.

Let me make that even bigger for you, since you didn't understand it.

Now you're just ramming yourself with a dildo. This is sickening to watch, honestly.

It pretty cleanly shows how absurd your 'argument' was, but I guess that's hard to understand.

Monsanto is evil and must be destroyed.
