"On the new map, new farming areas for major crops are added in the United States’ midwest region—referred to as the corn belt—as well as in the Sahara desert. This new farmland would replace large swaths of agricultural land in Europe and India, which would, in turn, be restored to natural habitat."

"Additionally, the “redesign"... would erase the need for irrigation entirely, relying instead on natural rainfall in wet regions to keep the crops growing."
