全球食品危机昨日加剧

全球食品危机在昨日加剧，全球最大的小麦出口国之一暂停外销，在印尼禁止本国农民将谷物销往国外之后，米价蹿升至创纪录高点。

此外，日本大型食品企业日本食品化工株式会社(Nihon Shokuhin Kako)表示，高昂的玉米价格已迫使该公司首次购买较为廉价的基因改良型玉米，这是市场动荡的又一信号。此举在法律上虽未越界，但却打破了一项社会禁忌，表明面对创纪录的食品价格，反对基因改良食品的声音可能会减弱。

与此同时，全球第五大食品出口国哈萨克斯坦刚对本国小麦出口加以限制，加上印尼的大米出口禁令，将会使其他食品出口国面临来自进口国的更大需求，有可能使这些国家也实施出口禁令。

The global food crisis intensified yesterday when one of the world's biggest wheat exporters halted foreign sales and rice prices shot to a record high after Indonesia stopped its farmers from selling the grain abroad.

In another sign of turmoil, a big food company in Japan, Nihon Shokuhin Kako, said high corn prices had forced it to buy cheaper genetically modified corn for the first time, breaking a social, though not legal, taboo and signalling that opposition to GM foods could weaken in the face of record food prices.

Meanwhile, fresh wheat export curbs in Kazakhstan, the world's fifth largest exporter, and the rice bans in Indonesia, threaten to trigger bans in other food exporting countries, which will now face much higher demand from importing countries.
