        Isn’t the average American farmer a megacorporation or investment fund these days?

      I know a guy in his late 80’s who’s still farming. He’s told me a million times that the day he stops farming will be the day that he dies, and I believe him. He’s got enough money to retire - he’s just in it for the love of the game.

      I heard rural China isn’t nearly as developed as you’d think as a westerner. We mainly look at all the modern cities and regions which have become the factory of the world.

        True, but the bloke has access to a.i. so he can’t be that far off the beaten track. Chuzhou looks like it’s a pretty sizeable city as well.
