Less lamentable than the health impacts (famine) of not centralizing and industrializing food production!


Centralizing and industrializing food production has its own famine hazards, like if a strong solar flare were to happen.

You would certainly be in the minority.

The vast majority of mankind has left farming, once the opportunity presented itself.
