....how do you arrive at Capitalism from "a good portion of our agriculture"?
Simple. A good portion of our agriculture is based on capitalism. Prior to the industrial revolution (capitalism) there weren't nation sized monoculture farms full of identical genetic freakshow plants.
Because agriculture itself isn’t a problem. Rampant (and unnecessary) exploitation, to satiate artificial scarcity is.
