A Georgia farmer criticized Bill Gates on becoming the largest farmland owner in the US, raising concerns about the tech mogul’s secret dealings and investments in plant protein.
A fourth-generation farmer in South Georgia, Will Harris, recently shared concerns aboutallegedly becoming the largest individual farmland owner in the United States.
"First, land is precious," the post says. "It may be more precious than anything. I hate to see someone, who has no idea what to do with it, be put in a position to control it. How well do you think that I would do running a tech company or financial institution? It’s the same logic as letting a guy like Gates manage something as complex as an ecosystem. He lacks the understanding to steward it properly.
"Second, the whole deal has been kept way too secretive," the post continues. "An article that was dated May 4, 2021, informed us that Gates has purchased over 200,000 acres in 18 states. Georgia was not listed as one of the 18 states, but an acquaintance of mine sold his farm located in Georgia to Gates prior to that time. What else are they lying about?"
Bill Gates speaks during the Global Investment Summit at the Science Museum on October 19, 2021 in London, England.
