    You can grow just enough to meet your needs, or scale it to oligarch levels. So, the whole status spectrum.

    It can mean you’re poor, or it can mean you’re rich. Farms can be of any size after all.

    Doesn’t imply anything. You can have one whilst lacking plumbing, electricity, and primary education.

    It’s not clear. Rich, poor, hippie, self-sufficient everyone can have a huerta.

    You are either extremely poor or absurdly rich with no in between. Or you inherited It and it sits abandoned ever since.

    Very little. Pretty much every class is represented in farm ownership. There are tiny subsistence farms owned by very poor people to feed themselves and their immediate neighbors, massive farms owned by immensely rich families or companies, and everything inbetween. It’s also a status symbol to own a finca or ranch/country house. These can be small and modest for middle class families, often producing some product for passive income, or massive for the wealthiest families, in which case they’re often just for show and don’t really produce anything unless the owners were already in the agribusiness.

    Depends on location, size and amenities

    There is no correlation.

    Nothing, not enough details to make a conclusion.
