Sorry, my computer keeps logging me off and I lose my post so I have to do this in several installments.

Many of the big corporate farming companies are more interested in getting every tax break and government subsidy they can manage. They often tear the hell out of everything....woods and parts of the farm fields that generations of farmers have left alone because it was wiser not to farm that ground.
Many areas can have serious erosion problems or be part of a wetland area that has been left alone for that very reason....what do these big corporations do?
They come in and tear them up and call it land improvement so they can get tax breaks on the cost of the destruction they cause.
They destroy the habitat of wild animals and ruin the ground for any other use as well as the visual beauty for no reason....when they are done they still can't use it for farming so it is a waste.
