China vs US agricultural stats

China has a very similar size to the US, yet half the arable land, and 75 times more farmers. And yet China produced 7 times the weight of agricultural product in 2019.htps://www.insidermonkey.com

China has a land area of 9.3E6 km2, which is 2.2% larger than the US land area of 9.1E6 km2.

the population of agricultural producers in China is 75 times larger than the United States, but China has less than half the arable land available for farming. 

the agricultural sectors in both countries face similar challenges and opportunities: farmers in both countries are aging; farm succession and access to land are common concerns; phosphorus-induced algal blooms occur in both the United States and China—in fact, Chinese farmers apply more fertilizers and pesticides than their US counterparts.
