I get what you’re saying but tactically this makes no sense. A farm is only useful over the long term, which would require you to defend it from police and potentially military forces. Groceries can be distributed from stores fairly quickly, so you could give them away quickly if the state forces are slow.
Once. Then the store shuts down and nobody can get groceries.
Seriously asking, did that actually happen in Milan?
Not sure. I know I read about a lot of the places that were subject to looting during the BLM protests closed down. I don't have good info as to what happened with them long term though.
If your goal is exclusively to lootz grocery stores are easier and a better target
