    Where did you get your $300/acre/yr figure?

    The lease contracts sitting on my desk…? Did you have a better source in mind?

    Unless you’re suggesting we collectivise agriculture, then sure.

    Sure, if you want. I don’t care how you work out the details of your life. All this thread is about is recognizing that if you change nothing, nothing will change. Do you actually want change, or do you only want to talk about change?

      Can you forward me some info on this?

      Contrary to what you may think, I’m down to work my own single acre. Seems like a good way. I already live in rural Canada.

      Land prices are much higher than you indicate around here.

      For example, the smallest and cheapest plot I can find for rent is 60 acres. It’s $40 per and also very difficult to access with no water supply either, hence the low price. So, 2.4k minimum. If I organized a community then we could get something done and we for sure aren’t growing fruits and vegetables. But that’s not what you are describing.
