If there is a real deal to be had, they'll be first in line to accept it, regardless of what the spin doctors in the news want you to believe.

It also would not surprise me if a lot of these prices are tail payment, and predicated on the plan getting up, and involve middlemen who are brokering the land up to bigger players in the hyperscaler space. Lots of NDA, not much money up front.

I would think that there are brownfield ex-factory sites which make more sense.

Farming is agribusiness is big business. People who are in farming for the long haul. But, if its not a family enterprise (and a lot isn't any more) and if there's a board, and shareholders, then the temptation to cash out and move money to another place is there. So I expect despite all these refusals from one cohort of the farm sector, there's another one which is looking at the merits of this and for the right package, will jump. But they will want a lot more than ag. value per hectare/acre on this, they won't settle for the value as soybeans, they want the value as a multi-billion dollar enterprise outcome.

I sure hope some of them really are the green heart, who value nature. But I think the story is going to be a lot more multi dimensional than that.
