  On the face of it the statement is true but a deeper dive makes the comment lacking grounding. In Holland and America only 7 percent of the population are involved in Agriculture and yet they are able to feed their populations. We have a staggering 76% of our labor force in agriculture yet we import more than 65% of our food needs including staples such as rice, beans and maize.
