Control of Foreign investment is essential, not only to Farming but also to manufacturing, banking, and other races of our economy.

Lt Col Charlie Brown Right now I don't think it is that big of a problem. However, if the Chinese continue to buy more farmland this could lead to the Chinese controlling our country out of the necessity of putting food on the table.

Kind of old news, it's been going on for decades. I know both of my inlaws farms in Iowa were bought back in 2004 by a conglomerate owned in China. It's the Chineese playbook, buy up things in countries until you get to the point where the country is dependent on China. Problem is you need to buy a lot more in the US than say some African country to ever get there.

Have read about a lot of problems with China financing projects in Africa. If/when projects fail and default, China owns them - all part of the Belt and Road initiative.
