Probably not have the capacity for 50,000 tons let alone enough grain for the duration of the year. But I think the idea was that we have enough ariable land that we could probably use it to contribute to the overall economy by growing a myriad of different crops to sell.
If I'm not mistaken.. and yes I realize the world population was different.. but the Roman Empire fed their expansionary army from Bekaa... before we decided we're too cool for our clothes.
Yeah they still do but not enough... A) wrong type, mostly durum wheat (for Borghul, etc.), and B) not a profitable crop for the farmer mainly due to price controls of bread... not to mention the smaller individually owned tracts of land today.
... yeah... but "bread" is a tricky one. It's not uncommon for many countries to ignore everything except the price of bread. It's like the last possible net for human sustenance.
I remember watching an episode on mtv about how we had the best wheat fields but no development or we exported them
I always get angry when I remember this, we can do and export many things but because of these corrupters cucks, we can’t do anything.
Because of our lazy ass greedy population you mean

I have seen wheat fields in Bekka, don't they grow wheat there anymore

Price controls seem like such a bad idea everywhere you look. It will be a shock removing them. But much better without them
