I feel that it is the mega farms who are able to produce the highest quality product at the least cost to feed the most people here, and in other countries, not the tiny family/hobby farms of recent yesteryears with one or two chickens, a couple of cows, and a few acres of corn and beans, etc. I also believe there is no such thing as a rich farmer: high property taxes, enormous risk to let weather take over, liability insurance, asset depreciation, risks, side effects of many years of physical labor, day in and day out year round for 40 or 50 years.
