I believe they said "Biggest Owner of Farmland".

Maybe someone is drawing a distinction between farmland and rangeland? That seems odd though. I’ve always considered cattle ranchers to be grass farmers.

The guy is worth $121,000,000,000.

I'd be willing to bet he owns a lot of stuff regular people own, but in much larger quantities. In fact, if his ratio of acres of farmland to net worth was the same as mine, he'd own almost 10x what he owns now.
