Perhaps, you have been following the news lately (Summer of 2012) and noted that we've had a terrible issue with droughts in the Midwestern part of the United States. This signifies the price of grain, grain, corn, and soybeans among many other crops here at home have increased. We also have a concern because it requires water for livestock; those pets need feed which is also developed. If the ranchers don't have that, they have to take the pets to slaughter early, trimming down the herd, and that raises the cost of meat. We also have mandates for ethanol, and it takes water to perfect ethanol, and it will take water to develop the corn - seed researchers are working feverishly on drought immune corn strategies.
Now we have competing issues for food, much of this meals we export to other nations. When we have shortages here, and given that we grow so much of the world's meals supply due to our mechanization, amazing agricultural technologies, and streamline syndication system when our costs go up, it influences world commodity foods prices. We are not the only nation that is having a drought scenario, and there are other problems as well this sort of as the ever-growing Ug99 infection which is tough wheat plant life in other elements of the world.
A couple of years ago Russia had big wildfires, and they were anxious they wouldn't have enough wheat, so they canceled all exportation of wheat so that their individual citizens would have sufficient. This then wheat product prices worldwide to go heavens high. Many countries such as Egypt needed that wheat to nourish their people as over 80 million of them only help make one to two dollars per day time. Without the wheat, there was municipal unrest, which was part of the cause for the Arab Spring.
They say a civilization is only three meals aside from chaos, if that is correct we might be went for more challenges in the coming year. In fact there was an intriguing article in the Wall Street Journal on September 5, 2012 by Michael Haddon and Christopher Emsden entitled; "UN Calls for Measures to Avert a Food Crisis," and they are inquiring the United States to forgo its require on ethanol manufacturing, and use that water and land to grow agricultural goods to ship to other parts of the world to reduce the price.
Yes, commodity prices matter around the planet, and when they get too far out of setback they can deliver down entire cultures governments. You should expect to see more problems ahead in 2013. Please think about all this and think on it.
