I still consider the giant grain farms to be owner operator even if that ground is muddied a bit, that's what I was referring to with the Subsidized highly technology dependent crops.

Absolutely my experience with small owner op farms too, in my area it's all apples and honey sold by somebody much too young or old to be working a market stall all day. Didn't really think about them when I wrote this since their impact is so small compared to the large soy/corn/wheat owner op farms.

Oh, for sure. Highly mechanized farms can be owner operated, they're just harder for people to support directly as they don't really have a public facing presence. I think there are a few brands you might find in stores that try to only deal with owner-op. Bob's Red Mill might be one of them, but I can't actually find anything on their site to back it up.
