Bizarre, I had no idea.
I bet the Mormon church is a close second.
Basically half the size of Rhode Island.
I used to ship/transport a lot of produce that originated from Gates owned farms. Mostly potatoes and onions. McDonald’s was a big end customer, that and wholesale/restaurant supply type outfits.
Why? Is it unusually profitable? Or is there some other reason for him to do this?
One acre in New Mexico? It must a very interesting acre!
Skipped Tennessee but bought Arkansas & Mississippi.
How does this compare to the land that Ted Turner owned?
For anyone wondering why the one acre in New Mexico, it’s apparently pretty mundane. Gates and the other founder of Microsoft lived there before the company was created and so he still has a property there
These maps make me laugh. Guess the party affiliation of the top 5 private land owners in the US.
Guess how many acres they own. Hint: More than 10 million acres compared with this gates 5g nanobot nonsense (which is all this type of image is used for, conspiracy theories and boogie men).
Now why would someone running a tech company even need farmland?
He is also a huge invested in plant based “fake” meat…
Louisiana and Arkansas make up nearly half the entire portfolio. He really went all in on that lower Mississippi region.

Dang, feudalism speedrun by America’s favorite nerd
One acre in New Mexico. Seems more like a home lot.
That single acre in NM.
The Mormon church has 2.4 million acres of farmland
In total that’s 3/7 the size of Rhode Island
“ what does Computer Boy want with all that land?”
sooooo basically macro stardew valley
Now this, is interesting.
This isn’t even all of it. He also owns thousands of acres in North Dakota. I had to acquire some of their land for a flood control control project
King Ranch is 825,000 acres for reference. That is one ranch held by one family. This is very little land and the title is just wrong on so many levels.
That 1 acre in New America is clearly doing the heavy lifting
I’d like to see where JD Vance’s PE is at after he’s done buying all the bankrupt farms he and trump/project 2025 are causing. This k shaped economy is working out well for him
Is Arizona that city he wanted to build West of Phoenix a few years ago, then radio silence since then?
so 420 sq miles, or imagine a one mile path from oklahoma city to San antonio
Out of 440 million acres of farmland.
Context still matters
The reason is that he gets tax advantages. Farmland provides unique financial legal loopholes that significantly lower tax burdens for ultra-wealthy individuals.
We should take it back 😉
Wouldn’t the possessive just be Gates’?
That 1 acre in New Mexico worries me. I never seen the term acre used out side of acers. Kind of like everyone has nukes but you worry more about the single one.
Something something data centers
Stan Kronke owns 2.7 million acres
R/mapswithoutnewerstates
Mormon church owns 1.7 mil acres.
Vile that its even feasible
For some reason, this reminds me of Dick from Supernatural. The extradimensional evil entity that possessed a billionaire and bought land to make human farms so they could eat them.
There should be a cap on how much land any person or business can own.
How many villages and serfs come with this? Really, this looks like a bit of a runty Earldom, I bet the neighbouring knights and barons raid him with impunity.
Gates is far from the largest farm land owner in the US even as a single individual. Stefan Soloviev owns and actively farms over 400,000 acres
In any other time period this would be considered a king.
Funny Redditors decide not to bring up Epstein when he’s mention.
He’s a left wing dirtball so Reddit loves it.
