A lot of it has to do with the governments incentivizing less efficient practices to support smaller farms.
A megacorp running a million acres would be a lot more efficient than a 1000 families running 1000 acre farms but, for various reasons, the system is biased towards the latter.
These Silicon Valley tycoons are trying to “disrupt” agriculture but they aren’t going around telling anyone what they’re up to, just buying up a bunch of land and hoping nobody notices. The political winds will not favor their usual shenanigans.
