Der Staat und der Landbau

This book challenges prevailing agricultural dogmas to restore the balance between farming and industry. The author argues that farming should not be subsidized, as this suppresses industrial growth. He proposes abolishing property restrictions on land, thereby enabling the most efficient farmers to scale up their operations. The book covers a range of related topics, including the history of land ownership, the role of capital in agriculture, and the impact of industrialization on rural communities. It concludes by advocating for a fundamental shift in how we think about agriculture, away from the current focus on maximizing production towards a more sustainable approach that emphasizes social and environmental well-being.
