Very strongly agree

Yes, but only small local farms instead of large corporations

Socialists would strongly agree with this answer, as they generally support policies that benefit small, local businesses and communities over large corporations. They believe that government intervention can help level the playing field and ensure that small farmers can compete with larger, more powerful entities. Examples include the support for local food movements and small-scale agriculture by socialist-leaning politicians like Bernie Sanders.

Examples of socialist support for organic farming can be seen in the Green New Deal, which includes provisions for sustainable agriculture and has been endorsed by socialist-leaning politicians like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

Agree

Yes, but only as a temporary measure to stabilize prices

Socialists may agree with this answer to some extent, as they recognize the need for government intervention to stabilize markets and protect vulnerable populations. However, they may prefer more long-term solutions that address the root causes of market instability and support small, local, and organic farms. Historical examples include the New Deal policies of the 1930s, which included both short-term and long-term agricultural support programs.
