I was surprised to learn recently how little farming is done by large corporations. Small family farms are vanishing, but unlike basically every other sector, they're largely being consolidated into mid-sized family owned operations, rather then into big mega-corps. Non-family owned corporations only make up 4% of farmland ownership
