農業大宗商品價格上漲，是需求上升、收成不佳以及糧食庫存減少的結果。生物燃料行業已經給糧食市場帶來了壓力，而新興經濟體收入的不斷增加，推動了肉奶製品的消費，進一步增加了農業大宗商品的供給壓力。
The agricultural commodities price rises are the result of high demand, poor harvests and low stockpiles of food. Emerging economies, where rising incomes are boosting consumption of meat and dairy products, have added to the pressures already generated by the biofuel industry.
