I think Peter meant that small farmers are are taking the hit.....

A few days ago the USDA reported that the number of farms in America plunged by 140,000 in the last 5 years -- that's roughly 2,500 farms going bust every month.





They're mostly small farms, so farms earning below $50,000 dropped by almost 10%, while large farms -- those earning over a million -- actually grew by 36%.
