Why would state sponsored overseas farming of thirsty crops for US import be desirable?
- palderson 12y agoIt's something that's occurring elsewhere in the world on the basis of a) a population wanting to consume a thirsty crop such as rice, which requires water they don't have; and, b) not wanting to give up its food security and rely on traditional imports. I don't know that this is something the US has done but the motivators noted above still stand.
