- tstrimple 8y agoIt's so that we have a surplus of farms and product and won't need to defy physics by spinning up new productive farms quickly. It's a buffer in case of emergencies and disasters.
- HeyLaughingBoy 8y agoOh, really? Where's all the farmland going to come from?
- frockington 8y agoThe United States? Can you clarify your question, I don't understand it.
- HeyLaughingBoy 8y agoYour comment assumes that there's all this fertile farmland just sitting around unused, ready to "spin up new farms." I'm disputing that and asking you where all the (unused) farmland is going to come from.
