Congressman Reveals Disturbing Reason Why Bill Gates Is Buying Up American Farmland

A congressman from South Dakota says Bill Gates is buying up huge amounts of farmland with the intent of artificially inflating the price of red meat.

His goal is to make the price of beef cost prohibitive thus forcing people to eat synthetic beef in the not-too-distant future.

This from en-volve.com.

Dusty Johnson, a congressman from South Dakota, wants Bill Gates to explain to a committee why he is buying up so much farmland in the United States while also saying that Americans shouldn’t eat meat.

As previously reported, Gates suddenly became America’s leading farm owner this year and owns close to 270,000 acres of land in the U.S.

He has now been granted the legal authority to buy another 2,100 acres in North Dakota despite protests by local residents.

Gates is circumventing a 1932 anti-corporate farm ownership law by pledging to lease the land back to farmers after the purchase is complete.

Now South Dakota Congressman Dusty Johnson is demanding Gates explain his plans for the vast tracts of prime agricultural land.

Johnson wrote in a letter addressed to committee chairman David Scott:

It has become clear in recent reports that Mr. Gates is the largest private farmland owner in America—he now owns nearly 270,000 acres of farmland across 19 states.

Comparatively, the average farm size in 2021 was 445 acres, according to the United States Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service.

I believe that Mr. Gates’ holdings across much of our nation is a significant portion that the Committee should not ignore.

Noteworthy is that Bill Gates has become increasingly bullish about his plans to force Americans to stop eating meat.

Johnson also took to Twitter to ask how Gates’ buying huge quantities of farmland was consistent with him telling Americans not to eat meat.

Specifically, Johnson asked:

Bill Gates is the largest owner of US farmland. I’m curious what’s planned for this incredibly productive ag land given that he believes developed countries like America ‘shouldn’t eat any red meat.’

How are his land purchases related to those aspirations?

Summit report: The Congressman also highlighted the meat issue in his letter.

Johnson wrote:

The Committee should be interested in Mr. Gates’ ownership and plans for his acreage, as he has been a leading voice in the push for ‘synthetic meat.’

In 2021, Mr. Gates was quoted to say ‘all rich countries should move to 100 percent synthetic beef’ to combat climate change.’

In an interview with Fox News, Johnson also demanded to know what plans Gates had for the farmland.

Asserting that, Johnson noted:

How ownership of farmland matters a lot.

No one has been buying it up faster than Bill Gates.

Gates now owns 268,984 acres of multi-use land in 19 states.

The billionaire is buying vast amounts of farmland at the same time as his friends at Davos are telling Americans, ‘You’ll own nothing and be happy.’

The land purchases are also happening at a time when farmers across Europe are being paid not to farm and are being put out of business by onerous net zero emissions targets pushed by globalist technocrats and bedfellows of Gates.

The concern here by a conservative politician is well warranted. Ulterior motives by wolves in sheep’s clothing must be expected. The democrat-communists are feral vicious predators.

Thank you, Congressman Johnson for questioning the intentions of Bill Gates, given his history as a proponent of theories counter to what Conservatism envisions as being the good order and well-being of the American populace. We the People must expect he is up to less than good as we define ‘good.’
