Farmland is essentially a complete livelihood, whereas other land is just a place to park a house.

  Or a wind turbine.

  Yes, but so is a business and it doesn't seem to induce the same type of ownership.

    To be honest, I'm willing to bet that the sense of history you get with a multi-generational family farm, probably is matched in other multi-generational family businesses as well. (However, most businesses don't have the option of the ultimate fallback of subsistence farming if times got really rough. :) )

    A business supplies you with currency to trade for the basic necessities. A farm can provide those directly.
