Rising food prices are a growing problem around the world. Prices for staples like wheat, corn, and rice have doubled or reached 10-year highs in some countries. Natural disasters have hurt production in key countries like Myanmar and Australia, where a decade of drought has reduced harvests by 98%. The rising global population, economic growth in emerging markets that increases consumption, climate change effects like droughts, and natural disasters are all contributing factors causing higher food prices. To address this issue, population growth must be controlled and climate change impacted reduced through lower carbon emissions.

- 2. Introduction Progress ofprice rising Example countries Cause Conclusion
- 3. Progress of RisingPrice Prices are increasing sharply for some of the most basic foodstuffs traded on international commodity markets. The price of wheat has doubled in less than a year, while other staples such as corn and soya are trading at well above their 1990s averages. Rice and coffee prices are running at 10-year highs, and in some countries, prices for milk and meat have more than doubled.
- 4. Myanmar Aheavy tornado hit Myanmar 2weeks ago. Myanmar produce much rice and wheat in world. But they were strike by tornado! So, the rice price increase.
- 5. Australia 10 yearsof poor harvest. The Australia is the second biggest country that to produce rice and wheat. But, farmers in Australia cannot do rice farming because 10 years drought. As drought, the rate of harvest in AUS have decrease since 1998. The harvest ratio decreased 98% than 1998.
- 6. Cause of FoodPrice Rising The first reason why prices are rising is growth in the world's population, which is expected to top nine billion by the middle of the century. That is an incredible number of mouths to feed and will put pressure on a range of resources, including land, water and oil, as well as food supply.
- 7. Cause of foodprice rising But lurking behind the headline figures for population is an even more significant factor pushing up prices, and that's the economic miracle driving emerging economies such China and India. To put it bluntly, rich people eat more than poor people, and all this economic growth is generating a whole new tier of middle-class consumers.
- 8. Cause of foodprice rising Global warming is one of the cause of food price rising. As climate change, some regions has too many water and some regions hasn’t water like AUS. And natural disaster is one of the reason too.
- 9. Conclusion To disturbfood price rising, we better make population plan in order to control over population like India and China. The another conclusion is to disturb climate change controlling exhaust carbon dioxide etc.
