French fries for McDonald’s. Carrots for the largest producer in the world. Onions for supermarkets. These are just a few of the dozens of products grown in the “agricultural empire” created by the Microsoft founder Bill Gates in America.

With more than 269,000 acres in the name of Bill and Melinda Gates, the two are described as the largest owners of agricultural land in the country.

They have so many acres of arable land that can be seen even from space!
