FYI. An interesting Q&A from the Center for Global Development (CGD) website
with Peter Timmel, leading expert on agriculture and development who is
advising Indonesia on its response to the grain crisis.  He gives his
opinion on the 4 major driving forces behind the grain price rise and warns
that if currently high global prices are passed along to poor people in
Asia, 10 million people or more could die prematurely.  See the link below.
