Original Note:
Whilst Bill Gates is one of (of the) largest land owners in the US. He owns less than 1% of all farmland. Not the majority as the author states. Blackrock disputes the claim they are buying single family homes and provide explanations that they provide capital. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bill-gates-own-farmland/ https://www.blackrock.com/corporate/newsroom/setting-the-record-straight/buying-houses-facts
