Trends in food commodity prices, compared to trends in crude oil prices (indices)
Year:
2009
Author:
Hugo Ahlenius, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
The impacts of reduced food availability, higher food prices
and thus lower access to food by many people have
been dramatic. It is estimated that in 2008 at least 110
million people have been driven into poverty and 44 million
more became undernourished (World Bank, 2008).
Over 120 million more people became impoverished in
the past 2–3 years.
