WORLD FOOD OUTLOOK

While the United Nations FAO (Food and Agricultural Org.) says that currently grains produced with year will be sufficient even though some drought and problems with Russia and Ukraine could cause some issues.

Cereal grains will be down 2.4% with the bulk in that being rice which is the most used of all grains.

What if the heartland of America suffers another drought?  How will wheat, corm and soybeans be effected?

What if Canada has a wet summer?  Will wheat  be affected?

Another interesting point here is that the green freaks scream about the American beef, chicken, pork, lamb and milk industry killing the planet.

Well, most interesting is that the demand in the 3rd World and developing countries for these products increases every year.  Again the rest of the world produces 10 to 20 times the meat and dairy that the United States does and like the coal and other carbon pollution America is very low as a contributor and we have no control over India, China, Pakistan, Brazil and the like.
