“Food security is our national security. Any nation that’s not food secure is only three meals from chaos. And I think Xi Jinping knows that very well,” says Kip Tom, a 7th generation farmer in Indiana and a former U.S. ambassador to the U.N. agencies for food and agriculture.
America is a lot less food secure than we may think, says Tom. Over half of all American agrochemical imports come from China. Chinese firms now own Syngenta, an agrochemical and seed giant, and Virginia-based Smithfield Foods, which was the world’s largest pork producer when it was acquired in 2013.
There are also concerns that the Chinese communist regime could launch cyberattacks on U.S. agricultural infrastructure and data systems—with major consequences for America’s food supply chain.
Tom argues that America needs a “national agricultural strategy” to safeguard American food security and protect agricultural innovation in the United States.
