It would actually be a good thing if there were a lot more small farms and more local/regional distribution chains. Much more resilience than Big AG.

If it's voluntary, fine. But to force millions of people to dig in the dirt for their food when they are used to supermarket shelves, that's cruel.
The reason we have farm machinery and pesticides is that the old way was very labor intensive with 16 hours a day of back breaking work.
It still is, but the greenies have forgotten that part.

Then don’t plan on anything that isn’t locally grown. For most that means no lettuce no avacado no asparagus no citrus etc etc

You can live as we did in the fifties …. Potatoes corn tomatoes
