It’s not a secret that billionaire Bill Gates wants to radically change the process and outcome of farming, agriculture and ultimately food humans consume, in order to follow his climate change ambitions. Bill Gates has been advocating for the removal of cows, pigs and animal-based protein for multiple years. This is not a revelation.
However, what is new, is the amount of farmland that Bill Gates is purchasing. Why would an entrenched climate change ideologue who wants to change food production be purchasing over a quarter million acres of prime farmland?
North Dakota – Bill Gates has secured legal approval for the controversial purchase of thousands of acres of prime North Dakota farmland, after the deal drew fury from the state’s residents.
The state’s Republican Attorney General Drew Wrigley had inquired into the land sale, and on Wednesday issued a letter saying the transaction complied with an archaic anti-corporate farming law. The Depression-era law prohibits corporations or limited liability companies from owning farmland or ranchland, but allows individual trusts to own the land if it is leased to farmers, which Gates intends to do.
Gates is the largest private owner of farmland in America after quietly amassing some 270,000 acres across dozens of states, according to last year’s edition of the Land Report 100, an annual survey of the nation’s largest landowners.
[…] North Dakota Republican Governor Doug Burgum, a former Microsoft executive whose campaign received $100,000 from Microsoft co-founder Gates when Burgum first won in 2016, declined to comment on the farmland sale. (more)
Meanwhile, in related news…
(CANADA) – On May 26th, Aspire Food Group announced that it has completed construction of its alternative protein manufacturing facility. London, Ontario is now home to the world’s largest cricket production facility.
Aspire’s new plant will reportedly produce 9000 metric tons of crickets every year for human and pet consumption. That’s about two billion insects to be distributed annually across Canada and throughout the United States. Aspire also reports that it already has orders for the next two years.
Crickets are currently being explored as a protein-rich superfood. They contain fibre and are already found in grocery stores and restaurants, and have a smaller environmental footprint than traditional protein sources. (read more)
If President Trump is fortunate enough to overcome the cheating in 2024, he had better go scorched earth with respect to anti-trust laws.
You mean if WE’RE fortunate enough.
I wonder if he plans on planting crops genetically modified to deliver mRNA “vaccines”?
https://scitechdaily.com/grow-and-eat-your-own-vaccines-using-plants-as-mrna-factories/
Excerpt: “The future of vaccines may look more like eating a salad than getting a shot in the arm. UC Riverside scientists are studying whether they can turn edible plants like lettuce into mRNA vaccine factories.
Messenger RNA or mRNA technology, used in COVID-19 vaccines, works by teaching our cells to recognize and protect us against infectious diseases.
One of the challenges with this new technology is that it must be kept cold to maintain stability during transport and storage. If this new project is successful, plant-based mRNA vaccines — which can be eaten — could overcome this challenge with the ability to be stored at room temperature.
The project’s goals, made possible by a $500,000 grant from the National Science Foundation, are threefold: showing that DNA containing the mRNA vaccines can be successfully delivered into the part of plant cells where it will replicate, demonstrating the plants can produce enough mRNA to rival a traditional shot, and finally, determining the right dosage.”
So glad I started growing my own food!
Just read your comment after I said pretty much the same thing.
Ditto
Bill Gates has a patent for a machine that will convert your dead bodies into fertilizer. True story.
Soylent Green….
Liquified human remains used as fertilizer, I have heard is already a thing. GOD HELP US!!
If they admitted to that, then assume they’ve been doing at least that much for ten years. I try to keep organic because there is no trusting what gets put into the gengeneered crops already.
Depending on exactly what organic products you buy, they can be from the exact same field as the regular ones. They just clean it with different chemicals.
When your veggies state organic that does not mean it’s not GMO.. if you want “un restructured“ food you better find you a source of quality heirloom seeds and grow it yourself.. Remember obama gave us dark labeling for a reason, make no mistake about it, grow your own..
Fair point. Only so much I can do living in a desert though.
I grow my own. UC Riverside and all it’s properties will burn in hell, so will all the “scientists”.
Very true Observer SC.
We have seen a huge number of people moving here to our small rural area.
They have been buying up everything they can to move into or build on.
They move into ramshakle older homes and instead of improving them right off or tearing them down like new owners use to do, they are building out buildings, sheds and poultry houses.
They do not seem to be as interested in putting the money into improving or upgrading the living conditions for the humans as much as they do improving the livestock or the food growing production side of their new homestead.
This is something new for our area.
Until the last two years or so most people moving here were interested in making the home newer and fancier with fussy new additions or all improvements were more eye candy more than were practical.
Now everything we are seeing are very practical and all the money spent goes toward producing food, or some kind of addition to sustain life.
A very strange new attitude for new comers here.
The lumber yards and feed stores are bustling with people spending money on basic supplies.
Something is up, that is for sure.
Probably won’t vote Democrat… Too industrious.
If you can, stop using Microsoft products.
It is far too late for that…
OH YA!! As I use my apple (small “a”) phone. Soon to go to android. Thx billie.
Not to rain on your parade but android is in cahoots with Google (I think). That was cute “Stop using Microsoft products.” I was able to draw a nice laugh from it and that’s priceless. Its a nice suggestion but agree with A Ronin, that horse has already left the barn.
They’re everywhere and HUGE PUSH for CLOUD everything. We saw how that worked for Rudy Gulliani.
Q: Why multiples of 27?
(27oo acres 270,000 total)
Is it some multiple of the township and range subdivision?
Gates wants us to join the 27 Club.
https://www.thewrap.com/27-club-stars-died-age-kurt-cobain-jimi-hendrix-amy-winehouse/
He’s confident he’ll accomplish the destiny of his soul ?
😈💩
does that involve jumping on a comet?
I don’t have an answer for multiples of 27, but there are 640 acres per section of land. Each section of land is 1 square mile. Bill Gates’ 270,000 acres total 421.875 square miles of land.
Don’t know if true, but
https://number27.org/twentyseven
Perspective… there are over 900 million acres of farmland in the U.S. B
“Why would an entrenched climate change ideologue who wants to change food production be purchasing over a quarter million acres of prime farmland?”
My guess?
He will be well situated to take advantage if things play out like so:
The government makes it almost illegal to raise meat and sell it. Loop holes will be carved out for Bill Gates. Everyone has to go to him for food. He makes vaccines that can be injected into your steak.
That’s just a possible theory. Regardless of what he tries to do, I think it would be in everyone’s best interest to develop a good relationship with their local farmers.
Funny, you think they will allow competition.
And he is just the depraved, evil person to do something like that! He is determined to cull the population by tens of millions and vaccines (not the covid shot masquerading as one) are the way to go. Bill AND Melinda Gates are both monsters…just because they are divorced, don’t think for a minute that she isn’t as evil as he is.
IMO, She is HE and he is SHE. Like so many of these NWO Satanic hierarchy ‘couples’, they appear ‘switched up.’
It’s past time to bankrupt these oligarchs.
Seize his assets! Who cares why.
Looks like he has to lease out to sharecroppers, er, lessees, which apparently can’t be corporations. It’ll be interesting to see how that works out, in North Dakota. Follow the money to see whose palm gets greased.
And then kick his assets. We all know why.
Bankrupt?
Make Lamp Post Ornaments Great Again and
NOTHING LESS
Its like something out of a bad James Bond movie.
ENUF. Is this the “man” whom WE CHOSE to study immunizations for “supposed diseases,” and then push to innoculate? I THINK NOT. Now HE OWNS farmland in OUR AMERICA??? I think not. Sorry billie boy, YOU R NOT OUR CHOICE
Good grief…
Psalm 37:9 -“For the evildoers will be cut off, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.”
James 1:11 – “For the sun rises with scorching heat and withers the plant; its flower falls and its beauty is lost. So, too, the rich man will fade away in the midst of his pursuits.”
Gates most likely wants to “be one with the Earth.”
The old expression we used to use was “pushing up daisies.”
It still applies.
Well he’s 66 and looks bad. Moobs and pasty low-collagen skin. Hopefully no amount of baby blood and stolen organs can extend his life much more than 10 years or so.
Unfortunately we know he wouldn’t take his own genocide vaccines.
I think we should try to build a movement that pushes for anyone that tries to mandate bug or fake meat eating gets eaten themselves.
Yep. I am not taking any advice from Moobs. Let’s not forget he is an executor of Epstien’s Estate.
Bill Gates is only 66!
I thought he was years older than that.
What in the world has he been doing, he looks like H*LL done over twice with one foot in the grave.
I have not really paid attention to the man and honestly I though the guy was decades older than that at least in his early 80s.
He looks a hundred already.
YIKES!!!!!!!
Hate him.
The American Indians planted corn, hunted deer and buffalo. The thief Gates (he outright stole the DOS) isn’t gonna improve any on that.
Military Convicts Bill GatesBy Michael Baxter –

“A military tribunal at Guantanamo Bay has convicted Microsoft Founder Bill Gates on charges including child trafficking, pedophilia, conspiracy, money laundering, murder, and public health endangerment”
LMAO yet here he is Free and Buying up American farmland. You should stay off Natural news and other sites that push this ofal.
I really doubt that.
“he outright stole the DOS” – Gates paid Seattle Computer’s, Tim Paterson, $50,000 for DOS back in ’81. If you still have a copy of IBM Dos 1.0 (I do) you’ll find references to Tim in the code. Life would have been very different had ego maniac, Garry Kildall, not refused offers from IBM for CP/M.
The Mormon’s purchased 300,000 acres in Florida in the early 1950s and to this day still own and operate the extensive farming operation yet no one is concerned about them.
Some years back in Texas the 500,000 acre (800 sq mi) Waggoner Ranch was put up for sale for $725 million and purchased by American billionaire Stan Kroenke without any fanfare.
Let’s not forget CNN Mogul, Ted Turner, owns 2,000,000 acres in his land portfolio.
As landowners go, Gates is small potatoes. As eugenics whackjobs go, he’s head and shoulders above the fray.
Locally, on the CA west side, I’ve noticed old Russian farms, some dating back to escapees of the Revolution, being increasingly sold to Indians, who appear to also be buying up farmland at a record clip. Can’t speak for all of them but some of the ones near my old place have been bought for cash. Old country cash. This has been going on for about 20 years or so.
Then there’s the big operations, Boswell, et al. Corporate farming, unlike in ND, is huge in CA. Plant genetic engineering has been quietly going on for decades out there. I only saw the chemical end of it, how chemicals were engineered to work better with the plant genetics to kill pests.
Gates is recognizable and has a reputation repugnant to many here. My bet is he’d be on the radar regardless of size and scope of holdings. People are suspicious of him.
Foreign ownership of our farmlands have went up 30% in the last decade.
It’s no coincidence (if you believe in them) that people not only want to starve us they are using our land to grow food and send it back to their countries.
If our government really wanted, they could seize any foreign owned land and turn it over to US farmers. Of course, our government would never do it because they don’t care about us.
Not for much longer, the Revolution will END all of those illegal backroom deals.
Saudi farms in Arizona are growing alfalfa, one of the world’s most water-intensive cash crops, and shipping it back to the Mideast. Cities here are considering water rationing, but these guys will not be affected.
Be a shame if all that Lucerne hay burned up and those fine Saudi horses it is intended for had to be eaten, now, wouldn’t it?
I will not eat the horses!
Let the fat Saudi princes eat their f in fat horses!
would just take the horses
I will not eat ze Bugz!
Gates owns 270,000 acres of US farmland. That’s not much more than a drop in the ocean. Total US farmland is 900 million acres. In other words, he owns about 0.03% of US farmland, but he does own more than China. The Chinese own 190,000 acres or about 0.021 %.
The last thing I am worried about is “farmer” Bill Gates. People are getting emotionally excited over nothing.
I suspect the comment above about Gates wanting to use plants as mRNA factories is what Gates has in mind.
Maybe Gates wants to be in charge of the market price when the impending Greatest Depression ensues?
Don’t know about you, but my depression has already started. I miss my country and I want her back!
I find myself wondering if this will be the last time I dine out?
If we will have another 4th of July to celebrate?
I’m working hard at a job to give the politicians more to pilfer! What’s the point in effort? I’m getting killed in my job. We produce and deliver high customer service and satisfaction, but people are crazier and crazier and systems getting more and more cumbersome… breaking under the modifications to track our every move.
How long will this depravity last?
How far damaged will we become doing nothing to actively revolt?
I’m a mom with a teen daughter. What world will she inherit and how will it receive her with her special needs?
And where the hell is Fauci? He seems to have disappeared and he’s one we very much need to KEEP OUR EYE ON.
I would rather keep an eye on him in his prison cell along with about a thousand of his closest global friends.
If 270,000 acres of “dry farming” land gives one control of the markets, tyrants would have ruled the World long ago.
True, what people need to worry about is control of farmground underneath irrigated farmground.
In the dry west who controls the water controls EVERYTHING.
Liquid Gold is KING.
There are BIG WATER PROBLEMS in the west now…Lake Mead, CO River, etc. The farmers do not conserve water, they expect urban areas to do that, so they don’t have to.
Crickets make great fishing bait. I wouldn’t eat one, though. I wish someone could stop Bill Gates; evil man.
I bet Burgum is secretly DemonRat. Tell me how he survived in Big Tech (MSFT) as a conservative??? Well enough to be sponsored to the tune of $100k.
We’ve seen it before like Groundhog Day in Indiana. The “flip” mid-term. It is subtrefuge.
Answer, he’s a eugenicist just like his father.
The more land he owns the more control over food supply.
FBG and his poisonous vaccine. He’s a reptile.
When asked about his relationship with pedophile and child groomer, black mailer, Jeffrey Epstein, Gates giggled and said well he’s dead.
Can he be trusted based on his “humanitarian” history?
Someone got paid off.
Might be time to start sourcing your own food folks. If you want to stay healthy.
Wouldn’t it be shocking of the next big pandemic to show up, also, has the ability to jump from human to herd animals. There were some rumblings about midway through the Covid farce where they tried to say that the virus was jumping to felines. It was never followed up upon or proven, however.
who cares. its his money. if he wants to buy land, and people WILLINGLY sell to him. whos bussiness is it what he does with his money.
let him experiment with his money if he wants to. he just might find a better way(doubtful). Again, it is his money.
its called capitalism.
So, Robber Barons, Captains of Industry, Monopolies, ‘company stores’ and filthy worker tenements are a-ok because the jerk with the most money can lord it over everybody else?
Rich guys are Gordon Gekko. They are entitled to force the rest of us to lock down, take vaxxs, wear masks, eat vegetarian, eat roaches, eat nothing, starve, and die because the guy with the gold makes the rules and the guy with the gold in Moob’s case appears to be a psychopath with a God complex who is convinced the planet will die if 8 billion people aren’t killed by 2030 and the human population ‘kept at 500,000,000 in perpetual harmony with nature.’
Good to know Adam Smith approves of kleptocracy and oligarchy as long as people can be gulled into believing it’s all just freeeeeeeeeeeee marketttssssssssssss.
“…at some point….you have made enough money….”
Who said that? An untouchable.
Bill Gates is about to learn a lesson when it comes to farming. It is said, “The way to make a small fortune farming is to start with a large fortune”.
There have been many large Companies including Countries with a Bill Gates “mind set”, try it and failed. Been in farming and around farmers all my life and I can’t recall having ever seen a Libtard farmer make it farming in the end. However, it is one way to get rid of a lot of computer money.
Corporations often will use farming as a tax shelter or tax loss vehicle. Where I historically lived they also will often enter into Williamson Act agreements to slash their property taxes to nil. Then there’s crop subsidies and what we used to call Lady Bird land, where they’re paid not to farm.
Interesting business. I serviced it for decades. They didn’t seem so poor as to not have a new pickup or a fleet every couple years and talk about those junkets to Vegas, Tahoe and Reno, while complaining about everything under the sun to chisel at my prices. Farmers, heh.
I live in the richest farming area in the World. Farmers do go broke but it is almost always a specific weather-related reason. The bulk of my friends are family farmers who like myself go way back to the turn of the 19th century.
Yes, there are and have been failures primarily during the Great Depression. However, today farming is as you described. Ever since the Depression, farmers farm the government every bit as much as they farm the land. I have always said farm subsidies become support and a lid at the same time.
Farming is not a “Free Market”. US farmers are used as government weapons throughout the World and have been ever since WWII.
Gardening is hard work. Farming is never ending work. Most people don’t understand “attachment to the land.” Try farming and you will.
I don’t know of one farmer who grows a garden. They buy their produce at the store like everyone else.
I know plenty of farmers who grow vegetable gardens. Why wouldn’t they? Too fancy? Sunflowers, pumpkins, tomatoes, eggplant. zuccini, roses etc. Of course, I am in California, Luther Burbank country, the perfect growing region.
Many raise livestock here too.
How much of his land is enrolled in USDA government programs that pay you to let the land go fallow? You know to fight climate change. These programs pay more than what you could sell your crops for. The government plans to spend billions $$$$$ on these programs. USDA Tom Vilsack is pushing it for Old Joey.
Makes sense. That’s BG’s real specialty–taking government money. Why does he take so much government money when he could easily afford his own schemes? Vaccines are the ultimate government industry: they pay you to develop, test and deploy them, then they subsidize them, indemnify you from risk, and mandate everyone get one from birth on. Why don’t they just cut us out of the process?
So getting paid to not grow food sounds like his MO.
Eh, I’ve been living in SE Asia as an expat for some time now and the people here, do eat crickets, but it’s like a snack, no different that putting a bowl of popcorn in the middle of the table and someone stops by every now and then and eats one. But at the same time no one here would ever replace meat and vegetables with crickets as part of a daily diet.
I tried a couple one time, they were roasted with plenty of salt and not bad. As a daily supplement or side dish to a meal ? No one here is that stupid, even the poor. I had to be super drunk to even try one, but I don’t understand why the Davos/WEF crowd is pushing this, maybe it’s coming from their reptilian overlords or something since that’s what they eat ? /sarc, ( kind of … )
According to John the Baptizer crickets 🦗 go well with🍯honey .
Locust is the old name for the carob tree. Carob is a pod that tastes like unsweetened chocolate. It would be nutritious and tasty with honey. And a vegan, like a Nazarite, would eat it due to a vow, rather than eat a living creature.
If only he had really given all the money he said he was going to.
Greedy narcissist thinking he’s all that.
Can someone lock this pedophile up in a Federal prison and have the inmates do away with him for the sake of humanity??!!
This will probably not end well. Bill Gates will live up to his name, open the gates for more bills.
I absolutely hate him with every fiber of my being.
Lib freak out
https://rumble.com/v1aqrbz-libmeltingdown.html
What is funny is these Billionaires believe they will still own all the crap they have collected over the decades after we Destroy the current regime and Make new laws that are FOR Americans and AGAINST asshats like gates, soros, etc. LMAO they will be crying in their prison cells as we divide all their assets amongst the Americans they Bilked for Decades.
Soylent green is people.
I’m not eating crickets. Ever. Not even if you dip them in chocolate.
There are about 900 million acres of farmland in the US.
Gates’ 270,000 acres is still a lot for a single owner. What is he planning to do with it?
Language Warning
And a skeeery gun.
John Dutton Versus Tourists
As Silvio and the crew were musing while when admiring Johnny Sack’s new mansion, “Then there’s property tax. And that’s the one you gotta pay.”
The property tax rate on farmland, at least where I live in New York, is a small fraction of the rate for commercial and residential properties.
I only pay property tax on my house.
My barn and all my out-buildings have no impact on my assessed value.

I advocate the removal of Bill Gates.
Oh, the Republican AG and Governor are all cool with liberal DEMOCRAT billionaire purshasing thousands and thousands of ND farmland. Gosh, I wonder why? Let me guess. $$$$$$$$$$
Maybe ND needs to elect some D’s to stop the big corporations. And the BIllionaires.
Only reason for Gates to buy farm land in North Dakota would be he knows global warming is real and a good thing.
Busted
BTW, ND doesn’t need to pass laws. That would be BIG GOVERNMENT. That’s something the Dimmycrats would do.
That’s socialism, boy!
We need to stop Gates the Republican/conservative way. Stop buying microsoft products. Or using MS operating systems.
That’ll stop him. In 20 or 30 years.
He may have over a quarter million acres
. . . but does he have his own navy?
God help us.
China and Gates buying up all the farmland.
