US Farmland Bought by China
Here’s How Much US Farmland Has Been Bought Up By China - The Daily Caller
Ownership of U.S. farmland by Chinese nationals has risen significantly in the last decade and amounted to 338,000 acres as of 2020, according to U.S. Agriculture Department data.
Since 2010, Chinese nationals have reportedly purchased an additional 75,000 acres of U.S. farmland, according to U.S. Agriculture Department data obtained by the WSJ. Although amounting to less than 1% of all U.S. agricultural land held by foreign citizens, ownership of U.S. farmland by Chinese nationals has received increased scrutiny in recent years following warnings from U.S. government officials claiming that the Chinese government may seek to use land for military and espionage purposes, according to the WSJ.
“South Dakota is now the only home of the B-21 Bomber,” South Dakota Republican Governor Kristi Noem said on Friday. “That’s huge for both our state’s economy and our national security, but it also means that hostile countries like China are going to do whatever they can to get intelligence on that bomber.”
Prayer:
- Once again Father, we thank You for continued intervention on the plans of the CCP to access our sensitive security sites, in Jesus name. We pray for continued strength in the governors and citizens to scuttle every plan, for legislation to be passed protecting our national integrity and for continued revelation wherever the CCP may try and hide behind a front agent. May our farmlands be restored to producing healthy, live crops of food to feed people instead of international hostilities, in Jesus name.
