I didn't think a lot about this at first, but then got to thinking. China is looking to use New Zealand Expertise to help manage land they want to develop for Agriculture in Latin America. We keep talking here about how opening up exports to China is going to help us grow, but the fact is that if we can't become low cost producers (without subsidies) we aren't going to be able to compete with the Kiwis. What they are doing isn't a secret, we're just too darn stubborn to change our ways...in my honest opinion. It's time for our "policy makers" to wake up and face reality, all this BS of trying to plan and manipulate the marketplace doesn't work, let the free market work, even in agriculture. If we don't wake up to reality, we're going to be left behind. The Kiwis have got it together. This is a global marketplace, protectionism and subsidies don't work.
