In a shocking revelation, a new map has exposed the vast amount of American farmland that is now owned by the Chinese government.
This alarming trend has sparked national security concerns among American-loving patriots who vote Republican.
The map, created by the Midwest Center for Investigative Reporting , shows that as of 2020, over 192,000 acres of farmland in the United States is owned by entities with ties to the CCP.
This includes both outright ownership and long-term leases.

One of the most concerning aspects of this trend is the location of these farmlands.
The majority are located in states known for their agricultural production, such as Iowa, Illinois, and Nebraska.
This means that not only does China have control over a significant portion of American farmland, but they also have access to some of our country’s most valuable resources.
According to experts, this is not a coincidence. China has been strategically investing in American agriculture for years, with the goal of securing food sources for its massive population and strengthening its global economic power.
This is not just a matter of foreign investment in our country’s economy; it poses a serious threat to our national security.
As former CIA analyst Peter Pry told stated, “Food security is national security. If China’s strategic goal is to dominate the world, then control of food resources is a key objective.”
In addition to the threat of food security, there are also concerns about the potential for espionage and sabotage.
With Chinese entities having ownership or control over American farmland, they have access to sensitive information and could potentially disrupt our agricultural production.
Furthermore, this trend raises questions about the integrity of our food supply.
As China has a history of food safety issues and lax regulations, there are concerns that their influence on American farmland could lead to lower quality and potentially harmful products being imported into our country.
It’s not just about the CCP’s direct control over American farmland; it’s also about the ripple effect this could have on our economy and way of life.
As more farmland falls under Chinese ownership or control, American farmers may struggle to compete and maintain their livelihoods.
This could ultimately lead to a decline in US agriculture, which would have devastating consequences for our country as a whole.
Some may argue that foreign investment is necessary for economic growth and job creation. However, when it comes at the cost of national security and American sovereignty, it becomes a dangerous trade-off.
Fortunately, some lawmakers are taking action to address this issue.
In April 2021, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-IA) introduced legislation that would increase transparency around foreign ownership of US agricultural land and strengthen review processes for future investments.
But more needs to be done. It’s time for all Americans – regardless of political affiliation – to wake up and recognize the threat posed by China’s increasing control over our country’s farmland.
As Senator Grassley stated in a press release, “Foreign entities should never be able to exert undue influence over such an important aspect of America’s economy.”
The map revealing vast US farmland owned by the Chinese government is not just an alarming statistic; it is a wake-up call for all American-loving patriots.

Where is Alabama on that map?
And where is North Dakota? China owns a large tract of land near the Air Force missile base at Minot. China is probably the largest landowner in the U.S., and a significant portion is near our military installations.
Good question, where is Bama? I noticed my state of Tennessee is holding out.
There is 2 AR.
Maybe the Clinton’s can broker a deal with China to take 20% of our farmland, like she did with Uranium One and Russia.
I believe that was 25%. And her reward was a huge contribution to her money-laundering company, The Clinton Foundation.
It should be against our laws for them to own or control our farms. We cannot do that in China! Shut them out of our food supply control.
Nationalize the companies China owns.
Kick their evil asses out!
I don’t understand the statement that the majority are in NE, IO and IL when the map shows they have some of the fewest and Orgeon has the most.
