One has to buy food regardless of price. If China needs to import food in a crisis, other countries can charge whatever price they want
Lol, if the US Navy is blockading your ports to starve you, food security is probably not the biggest concern.
I think your outlook is far too pessimistic on Chinese agricultural potential. I believe China is more than capable of being self-sufficient in food even with much larger population than it currently is. But aside from self-sufficiency, there are also a lot of gains to be gained from importing food.
And, I hardly expect US Navy to be capable of blockade Chinese ports anywayIf anything, we (United States) might be getting kicked out of WESTPAC within the next 10 years.
The US navy can attempt to blockade China. Which corporation will be willing to send their millions dollar ships with their millions dollar worth of cargo into active warzones?
The US can simply force none of the world food distributors (4 major ones controls like 90% of world food trade) sell their food to China.
China will have lots of options. The suppliers will be competing to sell on the Chinese market. China already imports lots of food anyway. Not because China cannot feed its people, but because people's incomes have grown, so they demand different types of goods.
I'd be more worried about nuclear escalation at that point. I firmly believe that China can fight back against a blockade and retaliate against US. I also firmly believe that the American psyche might not be capable of admitting or accepting defeat and potentially use nuclear weapons in retaliation.
Honestly, the situation in Israel VS Palestinians are quite sad. But notice how the current rules based order is beyond hollow, empty, and increasingly one sided, towards the Americans and their Bible buddies. Israel can use the biblical history and wwii genocide to justify land claims and aggressive actions against the perceived terrorists actions of Palestinian groups like Hamas, and the PLQ before them. The west, due to it's immense guilt and sin against the innocent people of Jewish ancestry that were wantonly killed has essentially chosen to turn a blind eye and has closed its ears to the clear violation of human rights against the hapless Palestinian people. Most of whom are more likely than not in joining terrorist organizations all in the name of vengeance, revenge, and heaven as their prize to claim in heaven.
China has historical documentations with respect to the border issues it has with its neighbors and yet its deemed imperialistic, revanchist, or even chauvinistic. The unfortunate issue of separatism among its minority ethnic Chinese-Uyghurs became such a world wide issue that it even condemned China's anti-terrorism as genocide which totally disrespect the many people and victims that actually were victims of Holocausts around the world, including by the Imperial Japanese against China during its pretentious desire to conquer China for resources to expand Japan’s Hegemonic ambitions.

Feel free to believe whatever you want. Chinese leaders obviously learned from history and believe the importance of food security.
Basically sounds like @HighGround wants to max out the national vulnerability credit card like @9dashline does with his monopoly money. Just because you can doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. All it takes is one natural disaster and everything goes tumbling. FYI global markets won’t save you either from surging hyperinflation in that scenario. Let’s not get started on the issues surrounding water resources for 3 billion people either.
they had 400 years of peace. not every one has same ethnic even speaking same language. you may want to look closely why Saudis raze to ground historic things and not even a trace of opposition exist.
Hmm... how intriguing. Do we have yet another tidalwave alt?
Guess that footage of Indians outright laughing at Lavrov isn’t going to help indias image amongst Russians
