| The WTO is a crock, the G8 nations treat it like the league of nations, following it's rules when it's conveniant for themselves, then expecting third world countries to submit to it like it was the highest power on the planet.
Well since the europeans crops last year have been decimated by the heatwave, their grain subsidies will be ineffective(as they have nothing to subsidize for) and world grain prices may actually be on the rise this year.
Good for farmers in third world countries, U.S and Canada<candana>.
Assuming their wasnt rampant droughts in Africa, I know is that Alberta and the rest of Canada had a pretty good crop season(Alberta and the rest of the prairies in particular had been in drought conditions for the last 5 or so year; which according to environmental scientists is a light weight for the Canadian Prairies, it seems at the same time Europeans arrived in north america the Canadian Prairies entered it's wettest period ever= the typical drought here before lasted 20 years or so.
Before I learned this, I thought only Australia and Africa got drought that lasted that long.
