Good posts fellas.

The solution to agri product price rise is ‘the’ agri product price rise itself. During past decades young generations in developing countries and the third world have deserted the land in search of wealth in cities. These naturally fertile land in most these nations are capable in feeding their population even on their primitive techniques. With simple techniques such as composting, most these land can continue production.
Agri practices in these nations have changed by shifting from grains to mass scale commodities such as sugar cane, palm oil, tea etc because of the low prices for grain. A lollypop made in England cost a lot more than a couple of bowls of rice in many countries. Mind you, most global Agri prices were fixed and controlled by colonial powers to maintain the wealth balance during early days and still effecting Agri products. Developing industrial goods such as fuel, construction material, clothes from agri products to compete against synthetics will be benefit the eco system too. They can be promoted in same manner as non GM agri products and could be more effective than the Kyoto protocol for the environment lol. In all, the changing price structure can, if managed appropriately, will benefit the environment and alleviate global poverty.
