Tens of millions of acres of agricultural land goes to things like production of corn ethanol. It is disingenuous to pretend we need this land to feed anybody.

We have vastly more arable land than is needed to keep people from starving, even when used inefficiently to produce things like cattle feed.

Maybe in the US, but farmland is quite scarce in Lombardy.
