dead pigs don’t need much food...
They are applying for exclusion from Chinese tariffs.
Also, I thought “all” the crops are ruined from glo-bull warming or something.
No, they don’t but the people need food to replace the pork.
China’s crops are being ruined by the Fall Army Worm.
Interesting:

Yeah, China is facing a food shortage with a porcine version of Ebola rampaging through Asia and parts of Europe. Without pork, China’s most-consumed meat, they need other food source to make up for it. Unfortunately for them, their crops haven’t done particularly well this year. Therefore, the impending food shortage.
Karma, no?
Will the Chinese put up with it?
The answer to that is even more interesting.
Chinese history is a cycle of consolidation into one empire and collapse into multiple regions.
We may be about to see the collapse part pretty soon.
And Taiwan and Hong Kong are getting friendly now, they may get together and take back a hunk of the mainland when the collapse happens.
Xinjiang is going to be interesting to watch too.
That’s very interesting indeed.
Mao’s Chinese ate grubs and lichen.
The planting season in the U.S. got off to a late start due to the long winter. If the solar physicists are correct, we could be looking at longer winters and colder weather over the next 30-40 years. Global warming has been great for Global food production, if we go into a severe cooling phase there could be serious famines worldwide.
Sun is as sun does...
I remember their being a quote from someone to the effect “you give it one good kick and the whole rotten thing comes tumbling down”
Wonder if President Trump has supplied that little nudge?
I hope so.
I hope he kicks it harder too.
Winning?
Lol.
Make American soybeans great again.
It’s actually not soybeans they want to buy right now.
And the winning is about China having to stop resisting Trump’s response to their trade war against us because they are at risk of collapsing.
Hopefully they will collapse anyway, that will be winning hugely.
Are you kidding?
If China were facing a food shortage, American soybeans would have no way to be a bargaining chip in the trade war.
Well judging by this past weekend in NYC, it ain’t here yet!!! :)
More on the Fall Armyworm (they are actually flying insects in one stage of their life cycle):
Hitler, speaking of the USSR, before kicking it.
Absent US aid, he might have been correct.
After the cash is in the bank Ill believe it
