I wish to reply this question: "Should farmers (growers) look at themselves as "producers and marketers of their products"?"

IMO: It was impossible for poor farmers to do so.

Because they are so poor and lack off immunity to resist to money power from the capitalism persons.

Solution on this matter is education.

Unfortunately, TH EDU was very sick at this time and go on to the WRONG way to destroy the poor more and more.

If gov follow HMJ the king words in 2512 then this problem can be solved easily.
