I suspect they are looking for somewhere to put their money and know that the future #1 commodity will be good quality food.

My GF who always thhinks worst senario is that the Chinese will have various "food stations" around the world where the food goes directly to the Chinese by-passing the local meatworks, processing, shipping and even taxes. It's Chinese milk, beef and lamb. They can do what they want with it.
