You said:"There is not even the slightest possibility of the farms along Nile being used to export food back to China."
By the end of the first paragraph the ny times writer says:
"Affluent countries like Saudi Arabia, South Korea, China and India have descended on fertile plains across the African continent, acquiring huge tracts of land to produce wheat, rice and corn for consumption back home."
That looks like a contradiction to me chief.
Did you not read the quotation or was it your hope I didn't read it?
