Question

compare the life of small farmers to that of large farmers​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

The large farmer almost certainly has a ton of debt and is caught in the commodity treadmill. As they produce more, they merely lose less, holding on for the year when commodity prices are up and they can scrape a profit.

A small farmer almost certainly has more debt than the average household, and is caught in the scaling-up treadmill. As they produce more, they become more of a price taker, and have to take on more debt to scale.

The economics of farming don’t make it easy for either one.
