The economics of food : how feeding and fueling the planet affects food prices

Author:	Patrick C Westhoff
Publisher:	Upper Saddle River, N.J. : FT Press, 2010.
Edition/Format:	Book : EnglishView all editions and formats
Summary:	In recent years, food prices have soared--and plummeted. As crops are increasingly shifted to biofuel production, will prices soar again? What are the hidden relationships between the food on your plate and the gas in your car? Will economic recovery lead directly to massive inflation in both food and energy?
