California doesn't feed the world Moron ....

Oh, Ok. Well it's the highest ranking state in terms of agricultural output, and it outranks Kansas by $34.5 billion in agricultural output (Kansas has $23.5 billion of such output).

Chew on those stats and go frick yourself, moron.

Value of crops isn't an indicator of mouths fed. It indicates in part that they produce high value crops such as nuts and fruits, among other things. (at huge expense due to importing water).

Kansas has a shitfrickton more farmland and produces more grain than any state except North Dakota. I mean, what do you think feeds more people? Grains or almonds?

Kansas is in the top 10 for beef production. California isn't . Do you think more people eat beef, or California raisins?

Just throwing the first stat you googled doesn't prove shite.

California has about 8 million acres of farmland, and produced about $1.3B in hay & haylage. Kansas meanwhile has about 28 million acres of farmland (more than North Dakota, so I expect an apology) and only produced about $700 million in hay & hayage.

In other words, California is just better and more efficient at farming. Kansas is making junk corn to make ethanol and feed livestock. It is no where near "feeding the world"
