Large operations have tremendous investments in infrastructure and often very specialized equipment. If the crop they have focused on is no longer viable in their area they can’t quickly adjust to deal with that reality without having to take a enormous loss on their investments. Small farms with more generalized equipment and infrastructure can rapidly adjust to the changes in their area, remain productive, and profitable.
