No they do not. What source are you trying to quote here?

https://www.usfarmdata.com/percentage-of-small-medium-and-large-farms-in-the-us

Family farms continue to play a significant role in U.S. agriculture. In 2015, family farms accounted for 99 percent of all U.S. farms and 89 percent of production.

You're sources are %100 wrong. The majority of our food comes from family farms. They sell back to the large farms for slaughter or processing a lot of the times, but those operations do not rear or grow the majority of our food.

So please inform yourself because you're just spewing more vegan bullshit data.

Some more data for you...

"Family farms" are simply operators of big agriculture's bidding, the latter having complete regulatory and market capture.

That's a quote from the comment you didn't read..

I did read it and then completely proved you're comment wrong with actual sources to back up what I'm saying, something you completely didn't do
