I have gottentoo accustomed to being a yankee urban dweller. I agree that I do not see many poor large farmers. They alls eem to live rather well and have lots of large homes and new trucks and cars as well as farm equipment. Now, they work for it so I applaud their hard work to get ahead and do well.
Your idea has some merit iffen we wuz to get like ten thousand acres or so of good flat farmland with really good soil.
HAte to break it to ya but yer misses and my misses is TOO old to do the work. I doubt highly Miz De wants to be farm worker either. So, we need another plan..
I am sure you can come up with an alternative plan....
