Its not a black and white - good versus bad situation.

No one said it was. However, I disagree that we need larger and
larger food operations to feed the nations.

I did not say we needed larger and larger, I strongly feel we DO need to
support the economic sized production units so that the people working
them can make a viable living and can afford to implement the highest
welfare standards. Exceptional welfare costs a lot of money. If we want it
we have to pay for it but also have the balance of food affordable to all.

The larger the operation
the further things have to travel to get to the people. More regional
food makes sense - and more growing their own makes even more.

As long as they are competant. My experience shows me that there are few
natural stockmen in this world, and many wannabees do not have the common
sense to compensate. For people who are natural stockmen and are not in
the genre of helping others all the time it can be hard to comprehend what
they find so difficult or how they can make so many mistakes so easily.
There is also the physical problem of lack of space. Urban areas around
the world are simply not the place to produce food now.
