Will China be able to feed their masses of people?
I don’t know enough about agriculture or flood issues to really do more than make an uninformed guess. If we have folks that do know such things, it might be a good idea to get a head’s up on it.
If we end up having to feed a billion Chinese, what would that do to our own food supplies?

No they won’t. The area that isn’t flooded has been experiencing drought-no crop there either. I try to give a read on crops and food now and then just to give myself a clue.
USA already has shortages. No workers to harvest the crop, or no suppliers buying it. Physical distancing slowing down what is available to process. Milk has been poured out on the ground. Co-ops have advised dairy members to sell their herds and quit.
Winter time in Europe for last couple of years has had food shortages-because of too cool weather for the produce they usually purchase.
I’m not expert, but increased demand/decreased supply to less than demand = inflation and shortages. Keep buying extra each payday-hard times are ahead. JMHO.
Scary times!
