It's the reverse. Prices dictate what farmers plant.

My comment says "lemon prices were high so farmers planted lemons", I'm agreeing with you. "Planting whatever you want" to me doesn't mean absolute independence from market signals, it means having the ultimate decision over it instead of relying on some other entity making the decision for you (or making it collectively and democratically)
