america is actually a close 2nd behind russia with about 16% of global wheat yield. and thats probably where china gets alot of its grains.
china does have vast expanses of farm country, but its mostly good for things like rice and legumes and other weird shit.
i think lin was just hyped up and exaggerating. china knows it cant have american soil. doesnt matter why they might want it.
