Great to see you link anti-trust to food. The field of competition got so narrowly technical it's infuriating. Jennifer is great to hear on anti-trust and agriculture, and the machinery angle it totally new to me. Thanks as always

@Thin, I haven’t had a chance to read the book yet, and appreciate the through line on machinery. Does Jennifer touch on the role of finance and the debt that many (industrial) farmers carry?

I say this as a multi-generational farmer who is working to transition my family farm from industrial to regenerative practices. And while the lock-ins y’all touch on are real — the biggest challenge of change is the risk of not being able to pay the bank back and losing the farm.
