I’m not so sure that’s true. There is a shit load of land used to grow corn to make ethanol that’s farmed by independent farmers. In the US most farmland is used for soy beans and corn for livestock feed or fuel. It wouldn’t be a simple or cheap undertaking, but that last could be utilized more efficiently to directly or indirectly fees people.
I would also bet there are enough people that would love to be farmers that can’t because land isn’t available or cheap that would step up if large farm operations were broken up. That’s pure speculation, but even if one mega farm were split 4 ways, that would still be an improvement to the current situation.
