I can kind of see where both of you are coming from.

This doesn't necessarily mean we are going to be compromising feeding humans, it simply means they are backing away from peaches, specifically. If people don't even want to eat that many peaches, then we might be wasting farming capacity and we should be growing different crops. Maybe a more dense crop, maybe with other nutritional properties. If you insist on continuing to grow peaches that people don't even want to bother eating, then you aren't helping people get the food and nutrition they need, you are just generating rotting fruit. It says they are giving money to farmers to help them pivot to different crops.

But we might have too many peaches in the first place because of capitalist flaws. Some del monte leadership mismanages things and wastes valuable cropland on trees that aren't really what people want or need.

Or it could have darker outcomes, like 'poors' are hungry but we don't think it's worth it so we just convert acres and acres of arable land to datacenters for the tech bros.

But, by itself, cutting back on one crop does not necessarily mean it's some capitalist disaster.
