City dwelling land owners get paid millions not to farm their secondary estates:
"One of those New York City "farmers" is Mark Rockefeller, son of Nelson Rockefeller and heir to one of the most celebrated fortunes in American history.
Rockefeller, who lives in Manhattan, has received nearly $330,000 in taxpayer money over the past 10 years for his "farm" on the Snake River in Idaho. Rockefeller did not respond to an interview request made by ABC News.
Rockefeller's property in Idaho includes the upscale South Fork Lodge where visitors pay $500 a day just for fly fishing."
