    Farmers are petit bourgeois, they’re also known as kulaks. They are not working class. They own land.

    Farm workers are working class.

      Today in the US, there are even relatively few petit bourgeois farmers; most farmland is owned either by big landowners or agribusiness companies.

          Almost all of the independent / "small family farm"ers in the US are petit bourgeois. There’s just a large portion that’s run by big companies instead.
