弗雷德里克·巴斯夏《经济诡辩》· Economic Sophisms · 投资
Misled by such reasoning, the volatile youth changed his rotation of crops. His land he divided into twenty divisions. In one he planted olives, in another mulberry trees, in a third he sowed flax, in a fourth he had vines, in a fifth wheat, and so on. By this means he succeeded in supplying his family with what they required, and felt himself independent. He no longer drew anything from the general circulation, nor did he add anything to it. Was he the richer for this? No; for the soil was not adapted for the cultivation of the vine, and the climate was not fitted for the successful cultivation of the olive; and he was not long in finding out that his family was less plentifully provided with all the things which they wanted than in the time of his father, who procured them by exchanging his surplus produce.

白话
年轻人听信了那套说法，把土地分成二十块，分别种橄榄、桑树、亚麻、葡萄、小麦等，想自给自足。他确实不再依赖市场，但土地和气候并不适合所有作物，葡萄和橄榄收成很差。结果家人得到的物品反而比父亲时代更少，因为父亲是用剩余产品去交换自己需要的东西。核心是：强行多样化生产，忽视自然条件，会降低整体效率。做法是：根据自身优势专业化生产，再通过交换获得所需，而不是什么都自己干。
上下文
同上，巴斯夏用农夫的例子说明自给自足违背自然禀赋，交换才更有效率。
