Scarcity of Food in the Future

02.04.11: It may be much sooner than 2050. Time to look for food related investments.


Also time to start lobbying against ethanol production.

01.06.11 - in the Toronto Star today.
 It indicates food prices have risen 25% in one year.


With China and India demand only going to rise, it doesn't look good, if we cannot find more ways to grow more food. 


The indication is we need 70% more food production by 2050.


I wonder what impact there would be if we stopped allowing ethanol production?


Wherever there is a problem, there is usually an opportunity.
Looks like food commodities (corn, grain, etc) would be a good long-term stock or mutual fund investment.
