I think you've completely missed his point. His point is that inside of his family there were too many liberal arts degrees and not enough agribusiness folks.

I think you've completely missed his point. His point is that inside of his family there were too many liberal arts degrees and not enough agribusiness folks. The reality is that if you want to grow organic, all natural, heirloom plants on that type of land good luck! That's the type of production liberal arts degree majors tend to favor. A person with an agribusiness background would come in and say, "Throw up the irrigators, spray the fertilizer, and lets try to get some organic matter into the soil". All he is saying is that his family didn't have the right people in the right places to make the right decisions at the time.
