摘要:I n the first half of 2008, the world was
facing the highest food price levels
in 30 years and a global food
insecurity crisis. Food prices were up as
much as 40 percent from their 2007 level
and 76 percent from 2006. The sharpness
of the price increases and their
persistence, which left many developing
countries struggling to cope with the
consequences, make this episode
different from past events of food price
increases.
