Like the experiences of other countries where the public has sway, a shift to conservative, or less liberal, forms has been felt along the entire food chain.
Food use of grains, expected to total 628.8
million tonnes, continues to account for a trifle more than a third of global demand for wheat and coarse grains combined.
Thus far at least, upward moves in prices for food have not caught the same attention of American politicians as have prices of gasoline and some other products.
The global food situation has as much to do
with population size as any other factor, indicating
how food has become an important determinant of
its own demand.
Observing its actions over the years seems to indicate that many of P.&G.’s undertakings in food were half-hearted at best and were never of a dimension intended to make food a main line.
