Dear Friend, The Land Report released a report summarizing their research into the top farmland owners in the United States. At the top of the list sit Bill and Melinda Gates, the well-known profiteers masquerading as philanthropists. Sign the petition telling Bill Gates and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to stop hoarding farmland. | |
Bill Gates and his wife have been quietly buying up large parcels of U.S. farmland, making them America's largest private farmland owners. Covering his tracks and making ownership hard to trace, Gates hides behind shell companies with reports of purchases such as one by a “Louisiana investor,” a limited liability company associated with Angelina Agriculture of Monterey, Louisiana. According to The Land Report, the Gates own 242,000 acres of U.S. farmland, comprised of large parcels in at least 18 states around the country. You have to wonder if he's hidden more. We don't need more GMOs, pesticides and corporate industrial farming in America. We need more regenerative organic farms. Tell Bill and the Gates Foundation to donate their farmland to those who will steward it the right way! | |
