That is the point. As a farmer I can tell you that big Ag is not for us and their biggest selling point is that only they can feed the nations... yet the nations continue to starve...

Give a man food and you have fed him... give a man the tools to farm and he can feed himself.

Not in a dry poor country without irrigation.


But there is enough farmland available
all across this earth to feed the whole world.

There is no food shortage.
And there is no water shortage.
Those are all lies by left wing media.

There is no willingness to share, that's the problem.

People have always lived in arid regions, severe drought is another matter... but there are ways to deal with almost all situations without having to move people from their homelands.

Re: How Not To "Feed the World"

There are people that don't own any land they could farm. It costs a lot of money to get food to these people.

I know families who feed themselves from a city lot or an apartment rooftop. It's truly amazing what one can do... look at micro or backyard permaculture.
