It looks like Bill Gates’s farmland-grabbing activities in North Dakota were just a *little* bit too in-your-face to ignore.
Amidst his dire warnings about climate change and pandemics, Bill Gates has been quite busy in recent years acquiring massive pieces of farmland across the United States. By January 2021, Gates had already held the title of the largest owner of farmland in the country.
The guy owned 242,000 acres across 18 states then, as noted in a Daily Mail report.
Gates has not stopped, nor has he slowed down. Red River Trust, a group with ties to Gates, had purchased six parcels of land in Pembina County. This was enough to catch the Attorney General’s attention.
Speaking to Valley News Live, Agricultural Commissioner Doug Goehring stated that people have been upset about Gates’ farmland purchases in the area.
“I’ve gotten a big earful on this from clear across the state, it’s not even from that neighborhood. Those people are upset, but there are others that are just livid about this,” Commissioner Goehring said.
As such, the office of the Attorney General sent out a letter on Tuesday, asking Red River Trust to confirm how it plans to use the farmland it acquired. This way, it could be determined if it meets any of the exceptions to North Dakota’s Corporate Farming Laws.

The letter specifically highlighted that there are “certain limitations on the ability of trusts to own farmland or ranchland” under North Dakota law. Breaking these laws will result in repercussions.
“The Corporate or Limited Liability Company Farming Law has certain exceptions, such as permitting registered family farms or allowing the use of the land for business purposes.
“Our office needs to confirm how your company uses this land and whether this use meets any of the statutory exceptions, such as business purpose exceptions, such as the business purpose exception, so that we may close this case and file it in our inactive files,” the letter noted.
More and more people seem to be waking up to Bill Gates’ BS.
