Black people have largely been expelled from the US agricultural landscape. In 1920, nearly a million Black farmers worked on 41.4 million acres of land, making up a seventh of farm owners. Today, only about 49,000 of them remain, making up just 1.4 percent of the nation’s farm owners, and tending a scant 4.7 million acres—a nearly 90 percent loss.

This didn’t happen by accident. Since Emancipation, Black farmers have had to fight for a share of this country’s fertile ground, due to a history of racist policies and land theft. But modern sustainable agriculture owes much to Black agriculturalists, explained Leah Penniman, co-director of Soul Fire Farm in upstate New York and author of Farming While Black, on a recent episode of Bite.

Blunt farming is a thing?

Niggers have no idea what to do with dirt. They still think they can cut out the middle man and eat mud pies.

If they can't sell it, smoke it, drank it or muh dikk it, it is of no use to them.

Haven't they seen what happened in Zimbabwe (formerly Rhodesia) when farms were turned over to niggers?
A fast track to poverty and disaster!

The only crop niggers know how to cultivate is weed

Or to put it another way, niggers have been selling the land they were given to buy weed, KFC and 40's with no thought of the repercussions.

That sounds a lot closer to the truth.
