2) If You Want To Understand Farming, Stop Trying to Learn About Farming and Start Reading Jane Austen US agriculture is a mess because we have landed gentry. We just don't like to talk about them. Jane Austen did though (: Bonus Field Guide To Identifying Today's Many Versions of Mr Collins

Tradwives Deep Dives: Farm Women vs Poultry Giants Before the big poultry co's, chickens were raised by farm women who ran their own businesses. Who ran these women out of the chicken business? It was their own husbands, brothers, fathers, & sons. Sometimes, the corporations have inside help.

The egg thing sounds like a replay of the brewing thing from the 1500s. When serious money starts changing hands, you get concern trolling about "traditional" gender roles. www.smithsonianmag.com/history/wome...
