This made me laugh. City folk. Being the daughter, granddaughter of southern farmers, as soon as this man started talking I knew what was coming. This good man, I believe, has a very important and probably urgent point to make. He appears very knowledgeable and the information he wants to share is, no doubt in my mind, information Americans need to hear. HOWEVER, it would be impossible for him to say it in the 3 minute time allotted. Southerners, especially southern farmers and ranchers, have a rhythm to their speech. It gives the listener time to hear and digest what is being said. Information is passed on in parcels. When there is a subject with different components, or possible different outcomes, there is a pause before each is discussed. The speaker hasn't stopped talking, there is a pause that actually does help the listener absorb the information because each part of the subject, of the whole, has it's own place. Confusion is avoided because the large amount of information being conferred doesn't run together, isn't mixed up. Each component of the main subject becomes its own little subject. I could've simpley said that a southern farmer says nothing fast. I think it's actually state law that if the farmer farms south of the Mason Dickson then said farmer shall not use any form of rapid speech. Yes, I could've, but then again, I did say I was a southern farmer's daughter and a southern farmer's granddaughter. Such brevity of speech might be against the law.

[@robertbyers2021]

Your exactly right! Unfortunately he agreed to do this interview, without realizing that every news segment is 3 minutes or less these days. No one ever gets to the heart of any matter!

[@jcgoogle1808]

He repeated himself several times and started going off in the weeds wasting time. Just keep it simple. Don't need to be lectured by a farmer on "complicated" vs "complex" systems. Just say what his concern is with Gates owning farmland. And btw, it sounded for a minute like he was going down the rabbit hole of blaming "climate change" for something. The climate has been changing for 4 billion years. And if he wants to split hairs,... clearing forests to do farming ain't exactly a recipe for curing what he might have been about to blame his woes on.

Farming is a multi generation tradition which respects nature. Computers and robots cannot replace it

[@mrrey8937]

Unfortunately the farmer was unable to translate the challenges of modern farming and what it does to the land in a very shortened format. The modern version destroys the soils and water retention (water runoff) of the soils and all the organisms that go along with it. Plus Bill (government, WEF, Davos) is gearing our toward a government based management of farming (although it is not called that) for climate change purposes. Which in the end will guide your diet and eating habits whether you like it or not. In the end, he gets what he wants and all the money and farmers get nothing and we get what ever they tell us.

[@damionkeeling3103]

The first part is often true. Farming is heavily dependent on modern systems with drones used to map fields, automated milking sheds, internet connected harvesters. You want to farm like the Amish you still can, but modern commercial farming produces yields vastly superior to medieval style farming or they'd still be farming like the Amish.

@@mrrey8937 Hard to help people understand the importance of crop rotation and letting the land lay fallow for a growing season. Most people think in terms of "dirt" not soil. Soil has a complex eco system going on inside of it that has a very delicate balance that has to be protected and preserved, if not, it becomes dirt, and takes years to be restored to soil, IF it can be. IF it hasn't been too damaged, by mismanagement.

I think that's the reason he's buying up all this farm land - to let it sit. It's part of the "green new deal." They don't want farmers using their equipment because it "pollutes" the air.

So besides scooping up farms on the cheap, I don't think many Americans would put up with this. So how do you get a country the size of ours with lots and lots of land?

Will you please let the farmer speak, please let him come back to the show. This is important

[@abstractreasoner]

The point is complicated and it can’t be explained in one minute. Varney’s a dope.

Okay, so TBF, Stuart needs to investigate (staff, obviously, not him) as to how Gates is now making use of all this farmland he’s bought and get an Ag-Econ specialist on the air to get to the nub of the farmer’s issue, then hand off to the farmer so he can have his three minutes to make a personal point about why this matters. A better producer here could have fixed this segment from the unfortunate failure that it was.

I couldn't agree more .

Thank god he was on JRE and got to speak

Invited a southern farmer with a wealth of knowledge on the topic to the show and gave him 30 interrupted seconds to speak after telling him it would be 5 minutes. This is why TV is dying, never any time for anyone to actually speak their mind.

This “reporters” approach to this conversation screams of elitism, arrogance and ignorance at best. At worst it is an indication that he was directed to pursue a narrative, and not pursue the truth. If the latter is true you can be dam sure he isn’t receiving that direction from working class or middle class moms and pops.
