Now our politicians are still thinking as a colony:

"Farmers in Argentina are facing competition from foreign firms that want
to buy up land to plant crops.
In the southern Patagonia region, China's Beidahuang food company plans to
lease over 300,000 hectares of land to grow genetically modified soya,
corn and other crops.
The Chinese have also agreed to invest in infrastructure and to rebuild

with the excessive use of agrochemicals in large scale farming.
