Spaghetti Price increases by 25% in 2 months

September 13, 2007 · Filed Under competition from biofuels 

Today in Italy there have been protests at the rising cost of spaghetti which has risen by 25% in two months.   The hike is being blamed on the growing demand for durham wheat for ethenol production.  As world population increases further and fossil fuel supplies decline there will be much more competition from biofuels in the future, and food prices will rise accordingly.  An intact harvester system would lessen this conflict and so improve food security, double profits for cereal farmers and reduce economic dependence on fossil fuels.  Watch our videos for more information.
