Listen "EP 147: Food Supply # 3 | Why is Bill Gates the Largest Farmland Owner? A Lender, a Legislator, and a Farmer Discuss"
Episode Synopsis
You’ve likely heard that Bill Gates is the largest farmland owner in the USA. That creates a lot of buzz and, quite frankly, it scares people. But that’s usually where the conversation ends. In this episode, we cover the barriers to people actually farming the land and hanging onto it.
Today we talk to Natasha Cox, the regional Vice President of farm Credit mid-America, Rita’s husband, Levi Rogers, who is a 6th generation farmer, and Mary Miller a United States Congresswoman. We get into farmland prices, taxation, the climate agenda, China, and foreign-owned land.
In this series, we’re taking you deep into the complicated world of your food supply. Whether it’s a steak, salad or slice of bread… there’s a lot happening in the process of getting what you eat to your table and you should know about it.
