"The Chinese state-owned mining company Shenhua Watermark Coal has purchased
large areas of coal-rich farmland in New South Wales, where deposits are
reportedly significant enough to sustain a 30-year mining operation. The
deal has been approved by the Foreign Investment Review Board but critics
believe Australia is wrong to lose control of such important resources. The
government in Canberra says it is satisfied with current regulations.
"Australia is the largest recipient of Chinese overseas foreign investment
after Hong Kong.

(The term "pulse", as used by the Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO),
is reserved for crops harvested solely for the dry seed. This excludes green
beans and green peas, which are considered vegetable crops. Also excluded
are crops that are mainly grown for oil extraction (oilseeds like soybeans
and peanuts), and crops which are used exclusively for sowing (clovers,
alfalfa)) |
