Food shortages loom as wheat crop shrinks and prices rise
Food shortages loom as wheat crop shrinks and prices rise
Quote:
THE world is only ten weeks away from running out of wheat supplies after stocks fell to their lowest levels for 50 years.
The crisis has pushed prices to an all-time high and could lead to further hikes in the price of bread, beer, biscuits and other basic foods.
It could also exacerbate serious food shortages in developing countries especially in Africa.
