Why have wheat prices risen 83% within the last year? When I read (from this page) that the UN Food & Agriculture Organization (FAO) "has called for urgent action to provide farmers in poor countries with improved access to seeds and fertiliser to increase crop production" my hackles start rising. They will be pushing patented genetically modified seeds, designed to be used with patented chemical fertilizers, all over the world. These seeds are "terminal", i.e. they can't regenerate and have to be bought each year, enslaving farmers to the seed providing companies. So, obviously this wheat shortage was engineered by the large food chemical companies like Monsanto, so that they can begin pushing their scary product globally. It is highly suspicious that the UN's FAO is run by a former U.S. secretary of state. Also - it says here that the U.S. has reduced its cereal grain surplus, instead donating money to international agencies. Sounds like a deliberate effort to contribute to this shortage. I smell a big rat here!! If natural, organic seeds are wiped out and replaced by these "franken-seeds" then we are all in big, permanent trouble! The "new wheat" is virtually devoid of nutrition - just empty calories, hard to digest, no nutrients. Grown artificially from dead soil. Global health will plummet quickly. This has to be stopped. This alarms me more than anything else - our food supply is being messed with, big time, for the sake of money.
