The farmers who have lost their Chinese markets are NOT going to get them back. Other markets and routes have already been created to replace them.

It's not as if GMO soybean, rice and wheat can't be grown practically anywhere. Round Up, artificial fertilizers, poisonous pesticides, excessive underground water irregation and GMO seeds make growing grains easy enough, especially with house sized combines. It doesn't take talent, brains or experience. Just needs lax regulations, lots of empty, flat land and loans or stolen capital.

Just like our manufactoring jobs, Chinese grain markets are not coming back. American Farmers need to decide what they are going to do with all that land now.
