Pronunciation

It would be great if someone could add the pronunciation of "Macoupin". Is it /məˈkoʊpɪn/? /məˈkupɪn/? Something else? —Mr. Granger (talk · contribs) 01:14, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

farming became a large-scale corporate enterprise, with small family farms rapidly disappearing?

To some extent, yes, but not to the extent implied in that text. With no reference to justify the claims, it would be more accurate to describe the general impression, which is that many of the smaller family farms have been absorbed into larger family operations, along with some consolidation into large-scale corporate entities.
