“Land, see snatch”
They’re not buying farmland - they’re buying aquifer water, which is essentially free to farmers. The problem is that the aquifers are shrinking, and causing soil settlement related damage. There will come a time when we start charging a water-usage related export tax on agricultural products.
Islamic imperialism. Let’s keep importing more foreign funded “settlers” and giving them handouts.
Then we'll just Nationalize it! See, turnabout is fair play, right?
Nice alfalfa field ya got there. It’d be a shame if something were to happen to it.
Gotta love the Saudis.
So, they buy land in another drought afflicted area to grow feed for their animals because they have water shortages back home? Why in California for goodness sakes? Couldn’t they have at least chosen a state that didn’t have a water issue. SMH!

Probably planning on building another TERRORIST TRAINING CAMP. Might as well .. they’re all over this country. I know of several in my state.
The Bush family is buying up land on aquifers in Argentina. There they are considered the Rockefellers of South America.
It's nothing but sand, gravel and rock.
Nothing.
And no water.
They can’t take it back to sand monkey land.
Shipping food for animals back instead of shipping food for people back? Just proves how devastatingly stupid the Saudis and other arabs really are.
If this is true, that they are shipping animal feed back to their dairy herds, they surely deserve to become extinct, the arabs that is.
