[Sally]

It appears that Saudi Arabia is buying large acreage in many parts of the world. Maybe they want to make sure they will be fed in the future if there is not enough food for everyone.

Egyptian authorities agreed with the Saudi Agriculture Ministry to allocate 500,000 acres of arable lands for Saudi investors, said Saudi Arabia's Minister of Agriculture, Abdul Rahman bin Abdul Mohsen al-Fadhli, in a statement Monday.

Quoted by Saudi Press Agency, Fadhali said Monday that King Salman's recent visit to Egypt was "a historic visit that should be recorded in gold ink for the political, economic and social objectives it achieved for the two sister countries".

The visit of King Salman culminated in the signing a number of agreements, memoranda of understanding, and executive programs in many fields to help achieve the shared aspirations of Egyptian and Saudi leadership and people alike, Fadhali was quoted as saying.

I did read your article. Amazing, isn't it, since the farmers here can't get enough water themselves for their crops. I wish there were desalination plants up and down the coast.

Now how do you know I don't get out? Are you actually tellling us your have a crystal ball that you look into to see what all the posters are doing? I pass many agricultural fields while driving through Ventura county. Maybe you should come here when they have the strawberry festival and have yourself a little fun. Google

In fact, in the San Fernando Valley where I live, there were many farms at one time as well as cattle and sheep ranches. The corn fields that I used to pass is now home to a Kaiser Hospital complex, and the place where I used to see sheep grazing is now a housing tract. I miss those days when things were more rural out here. Even Roy Rogers rode Trigger to his church for Easter Services in Chatsworth.

I am quite aware of not only the Middle Easterners buying prime real estate in America, but also aware of the Chinese and others doing the same. In fact, I have an old friend in New York who is a real estate broker who many times has told me who is buying what and who is selling what.
