Today in the US, there are even relatively few petit bourgeois farmers; most farmland is owned either by big landowners or agribusiness companies.

Ah, right. In my country most are petit bourgeois, so I kinda did the projection

Almost all of the independent / "small family farm"ers in the US are petit bourgeois. There's just a large portion that's run by big companies instead.
