Duh. Have you seen the huge lists of regulations on farmers? The huge agrobusinesses survive because of political leverage. The small farmers can demand a premium price at farmers' markets. What do fast food joints want? Low cost + volume producers. They can't get that with the pending laws virtually outlawing GMO and with minimum wage hikes in the offering, it isn't as if those farms can afford to expand and hire the necessary help!
