Review of World Rice Markets and Major Suppliers
Author: James W. WillisThe Rice Crisis
Author: David DawePublisher: Routledge

Pages : 394
Book Description
The recent escalation of world food prices – particularly for cereals - prompted mass public indignation and demonstrations in many countries, from the price of tortilla flour in Mexico to that of rice in the Philippines and pasta in Italy. The crisis has important implications for future government trade and food security policies, as countries re-evaluate their reliance on potentially more volatile world markets to augment domestic supplies of staple foods. This book examines how government policies caused and responded to soaring world prices in the particular case of rice, which is the world's most important source of calories for the poor. Comparable case studies of policy reactions in different countries, principally across Asia, but also including the USA, provide the understanding necessary to evaluate the impact of trade policy on the food security of poor farmers and consumers. They also provide important insights into the concerns of developing countries that are relevant for future international trade negotiations in key agricultural commodities. As a result, more appropriate policies can be put in place to ensure more stable food supplies in the future. Published with the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Organization of the United Nations

Pages : 255
Book Description
Written for those involved in the markets who have always found that there was never one central source on which to on for a comprehensive treatment of the international rice market. It brings together information from a wide variety of international sources, and includes discussion of the various elusive companies peripheral to the market, such as grain and freight companies. This is essential reading for all involved with international affairs in general and for governments and other agencies concerned with vital international food distribution questions as well as economists and those directly involved in the trade.
