Jim you are in a timewarp. I would be very interested to see your sources for claiming land in Norfolk is abandoned. At roughly £9000/acre I cannot see abandonment somehow. If you do not like modern farming, what are you going to replace it with? Slash and burn?
You always take a very narrow view and offer total distortion.
Do you seriously think modern agriculture and all the trappings of modern life would have developed from a peasantry? In your dreams!
I think you are the one spouting nonsense. Without modern agriculture, despite it's failings, most would starve to death.
