In the US, juries are allowed to make any factual findings of guilt/not guilt, even if they are contradictory.

Even if you were, you'd still need alot more than a small portion of one acre of you were trying to grow enough to eat throughout the year.

Drop the livestock (minus the chicken) and the grains; expand that vegetable garden, and you can have a nice hobby that gives you some nice fresh food to supplement going to the store throughout part of the year.

It comes down to economies of scale.

In the US grains like corn and wheat go for about $4.25-$5.25 per pound.

One acre of land can produce about 2.3 tons (48,000 pounds) of wheat.

So being generous, lets say you could make $240,000 per acre.

Now you have to factor in the costs to grow, harvest, process, store, and ship that. Along with that you need to equipment to do all of this.

Ultimately, a large farm might spend more initially for bigger equipment, there going to beat out smaller farms by shear volume.
