China is exploiting loopholes to buy up U.S. farmland with the aim of sabotaging the U.S. national security, warned Ross Kennedy, founder of U.S.-based logistics and supply chain advisory Fortis Analysis and senior fellow at Security Studies Group.

Local authorities have justified greenlighting these ventures by arguing that the projects would help generate jobs and tax revenue in their regions.
