The Land Report, a magazine provided by the Realtors Land Institute, said that based on its research, Bill and Melinda Gates obtained “an estimated 242,000 acres of farmland” overall. That farmland portfolio stretches across 18 states, according to the report. The Gates’ largest holdings are in Louisiana with about 69,000 acres, Arkansas with about 47,000 acres, Nebraska with about 20,000 acres, and more, according to The Land Report." https://www.theepochtimes.com/bill-gates-is-now-americas-biggest-owner-of-farmland-report_3658236.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMacJordan Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 ~'Bill & Melinda Gates obtained an estimated 242,000 acres of farmland overall.' Bill & Melinda Gates privately obtained this land..?

jmohme Posted August 1, 2022 Share Posted August 1, 2022 This from a guy that has probably never touched dirt, much less planted anything it it. Bill Gates is and has always been a true POS. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
