Hi Stoneleigh,
Thanks, and found your post above of
Wheat prices climb to new high particularly startling.
Here is a bit more on that concerning fallow land in Europe:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7014999.stm
A decrease in reserve food production capabilities and a future need for increased FF fertilizers to make up for the loss of fallow..
I don't want to add to your work load Stoneleigh, but sometime would you feature the peaking of food production, or possibly find someone to speak on it?
I'd love to run an article like that - I'll see what I can do.
In the meantime, the best read on this subject IMO is Dale Allen Pfeiffer's (spelling?) little book called Eating Fossil Fuels. It puts the problem in very stark terms. I especially liked the comparison between Cuba and North Korea.
