Asset tax for large scale and absentee owners.

Basically if you live on the farm you don't pay. If you own a property remotely or its above a certain scale you pay x% a year asset tax.

I think this could solve a bunch of foot in the door issues around farming.

To add to this they need to break up the meat processing side. In US there is something like 4 meat processors holding most of the market. It's far too dominant for one country. There need to be I dusty breakup and easy of regulation for local small scale butchers.

A steep tax on property owned by absentees would solve a lot of other societal ills, too. People speculatively buying multiple properties they don't live in, treating them like bars of gold in a vault rather than homes. People buying condos just to turn them into AirBNB hotels. Landlordism in general which is, in balance, a parasitic activity, even if it does serve a legitimate economic purpose.
