Well the reason they grow corn is because corn specifically is heavily subsidized and it grows well and it's sold for things like oil, whiskey and largest of all animal feed. In fact most of our biggest crops by acres are primarily animal feed or things that make animal feed through byproducts like soybean husks.

I don't actually think his plan is even going to positively effect domestic food prices that much. It's just going to flood the domestic market with corn and soybeans. Not even corn meant for people either.

I mean I hope I'm wrong and that the plan itself is more complicated than just a blanket tax on all agricultural exports or that he offsets it somehow so we don't have massive agricultural issues.
I would love for it all to work out and food prices to go down but I'm not so sure.
