Default the worlds rice and wheat crisis

so apparently there's a crisis on the horizon
or it's already begun

actually it concerns the global price of FOOD, period but rice and wheat are hot topics.

BLAME CHINA! damn commies. youd think restricting population might help but nooo

maybe india and bangladesh will help us out, who knows.

the news is alll over the place. some articles say that the production will actually rise because we're seeing this temporary crazy shortage. and others are like OMG NO FOOD WE'RE SCREWED.

my friend told me her mom called her and she and people they know all went out and stocked up on rice and wheat

um anyway this is really interesting. boo to hybridz. ++++++ organic
Business - Organic rice offers long-term solution to rice crisis - INQUIRER.net

of course im not linking an article that says the hybrid is actually going to end up saving us, but whatever.
