@jeffowski according to https://www.quora.com/How-many-acres-can-one-person-farm?top_ans=278151323 Peter Kaye "had 530 acres and had absolutely no problems doing everything myself. At the busiest times I plowed all night to get the soil ready for planting, as long as you have the right machinery it’s a lot of work but it can be done."
So... yeah - there's no effing reason anyone, ever, should be hungry (unless they want to be)
