China buys half of the world’s food supplies

China will buy up most of the world’s food reserves: according to the US Department of Agriculture, 50 percent of wheat and more than 60 percent of rice and maize of all reserves in the world are stored in the republic’s warehouses.

Experts believe that we are talking about an increase in reserves by 20 percent over the past ten years.
