I certainly am no expert but Dr. Sarah Taber talks about how many farms, especially small to mid sized, are effectively tax write offs and that the "put upon" farmer is a myth [0] [1].

Not a myth, but likely already forced out of the industry or dead by their own hand. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farmers'_suicides_in_the_Uni...
Again, not an expert but Dr. Sarah Taber claims that number is inflated by considering farm employees, not farm owners [0]. The claim is that farm owners are no worse than the baseline but that farm employees, often times low wage, migrant or undocumented workers, are the ones that suffer from a high suicide rate.
From the archived Twitter link:
""" In other words, the farm lobby has stolen farmworkers' deaths as their own. """
