Food Prices Could Double in the Next 20 Years

Food prices could double in the next 20 years as climate change and rising global populations inflate the cost of key crops, Oxfam has warned. Within twenty years, the charity has predicted that the cost of crops could increase by up to 180%. “The food system is pretty well bust in the world,” Oxfam Chief Executive Barbara Stocking told reporters, announcing the launch of the Grow campaign as 925 million people go hungry every day. – The Telegraph
