There are local subsidies that come into play as well. For example, why do we subsidize growing hay in Albemarle? Is that really the best crop for our region?
Also, I can't help but wonder what impact consumer demand has on that statistic? For example, if subsidized corn was grown for human consumption then I'd assume it'd end up in the chart on the right, but if it was grown for cattle production then does it end up on the left?
