  • "Until two years ago we had too much food, but it was badly and unequally distributed," says Abdolreza Abbassian, secretary of the intergovernmental group for grains trade at the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), a UN agency. Today about 850m people, mostly women and children, remain chronically hungry while 1.1 billion are obese or overweight.

    Food is scarcer now thanks to market liberalisation. The biofuel industry is gobbling up an increasing share of the corn and sugar crops.
