No sharp food price increases before 2001. After the collapse in raw agricultural materials at the end of summer 2008, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) agricultural forecasts for 2009-18 do not predict any sharp price increases for another two or three years. The two organisations are, however, remaining cautious, given the period of economic uncertainty and current climate. They believe that this sector is more resilient than others and the report indicates that agricultural prices are expected to align themselves with average prices for the 1997-2006 period (just before the recent price explosion) or even go above them. Vegetable oil prices may therefore rise by 30% compared to 1997-06, whilst meat prices will not change drastically and consumers will be able to purchase less expensive products such as poultry. The increase in production will take off again in developing countries once the crisis comes to an end, explain the authors of the report. The FAO also believes that in order to be able to respond to an increase in world demand, agricultural production will need to increase by 40% worldwide by 2030 and by 70% by 2050 compared to the 2005-07 production level average.
