Producing chips and agricultural goods are fundamentally different, starting with limits like climate, seasonality, and land. At most, you could compare it to mining minerals for chip production
It's more to do with similarities in the consequences of not have any local supply in times of emergency.
A. How bad is the consequence of not having them?
B. How long does it take to tool up domestic production if there's a supply disruption?
C. How long can you tolerate the shortage of them?
D. How easy is it for a disruption or disaster to disrupt international supply?
The answers to A and D are fairly different, but both are "bad enough" to trigger this kind of thinking. The ratio of B to C are probably similar between food and critical integrated circuits.
