i Category of ‘Developing countries’ as used in OECD and FAO, 2012.
ii OECD and FAO (2012) explain that the decrease of stock ratio in rice is mainly caused by a contraction in China and India from the extraordinarily high inventory levels of recent years. iii Years based on the FAO Food Price Index: http://www.fao.org/ worldfoodsituation/wfs-home/foodpricesindex/en/ iv “Stuck on dry land,” Financial Times (Analysis), 31 July 2012. v http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/expert_assessment/ seasonal_drought.pdf ; http://US$a01.library.cornell.edu/US$a/current/CropProd/CropProd-11-09-2012.pdf ; http://www.fao.org/worldfoodsituation/wfs-home/csdb/en/ ; http://www.fao.org/worldfoodsituation/wfs-home/foodpricesindex/en/ ; http://www.ers.US$a.gov/topics/in-the-news/us-drought2012-farm-and-food-impacts.aspx ; http://www.US$a.gov/oce/commodity/wasde/latest.pdf. vi http://landportal.info/landmatrix; accessed 18 February 2013 only using land deals in relation to agricultural production. vii http://www.morningstar.com/earnings/21927995-bunge-ltdbgq4-2010.aspx?pindex=2 (accessed 21 February 2013). viii http://www.morningstar.com/earnings/21927995-bunge-ltdbgq4-2010.aspx?pindex=3 (accessed 21 February 2013). ix http://reports.weforum.org/global-risks-2012. x FAO Aquastat, www.fao.org/nr/water/aquastat/water_use/index.stm. xi ‘Virtual water’ refers to the amount of water that is used by one country by consuming goods produced somewhere else. At country level, this water is neither accounted for in the population’s consumption nor in the country’s water demand. In the countries were the goods are produced, this ‘virtual water’ is subtracted to the local consumption. As this ‘virtual water’ is often not accounted for, the water balance for these producing countries might not capture correctly the sources of shortages. xii COMESA = Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa.
