Japan's hunger becomes a dire warning for other nations

[Anonymous No.]

MARIKO Watanabe admits she could have chosen a better time to take up baking. This week, when the Tokyo housewife visited her local Ito-Yokado supermarket to buy butter to make a cake, she found the shelves bare.

"I went to another supermarket, and then another, and there was no butter at those either. Everywhere I went there were notices saying Japan has run out of butter. I couldn't believe it — this is the first time in my life I've wanted to try baking cakes and I can't get any butter," said the frustrated cook.

Japan's acute butter shortage, which has confounded bakeries, restaurants and now families across the country, is the latest unforeseen result of the global agricultural commodities crisis.

A sharp increase in the cost of imported cattle feed and a decline in milk imports, both of which are typically provided in large part by Australia, have prevented dairy farmers from keeping pace with demand.

While soaring food prices have triggered rioting among the starving millions of the third world, in wealthy Japan they have forced a pampered population to contemplate the shocking possibility of a long-term — perhaps permanent — reduction in the quality and quantity of its food.

A 130% rise in the global cost of wheat in the past year, caused partly by surging demand from China and India and a huge injection of speculative funds into wheat futures, has forced the Government to hit flour millers with three rounds of stiff mark-ups. The latest — a 30% increase this month — has given rise to speculation that Japan, which relies on imports for 90% of its annual wheat consumption, is no longer on the brink of a food crisis, but has fallen off the cliff.

According to one government poll, 80% of Japanese are frightened about what the future holds for their food supply.

Actually they get paid to grow corn for ethanol. Congress again gives away welfare to cooperate interests like ADM for a fuel most cars can't use which requires more energy to produce than it yields in return.

Japan isn't going to really have a shortage if any, for long. It just means Japan gets a tax hike for food budgets.

That's a terrible way to deal with overproducing.

[Anonymous No.]

Many factors at play here. Energy costs increasing and speculators in the commodities markets driving up global prices and wild swings in futures prices. Increases in energy and fertiliser costs means less crops planted. Add in drought and you have a grim picture for people living in the margins.

Countries like Japan can afford the rise in prices but will have to make adjustments. All Japan needs to do is order up a few shiploads of Butter.

[Anonymous No.]

The price of corn is also artificially inflated due to steep tarriffs on the price of cane sugar.

Cane sugar is ridiculously expensive in the United States compared to most other nations, thus the use of high fructose corn syrup increases the price of corn accordingly.

This is little the corn lobby doesn't have its hands into where the US Government is concerned.

From the perspective of the sellers, imagine trying to make a profit selling only at the same rate but producing at a far greater rate, meanwhile your price plummets. Good bye, market.

Additionally, where do you store all that surplus, if you do this? Selling it to other countries is a smashing idea, if you can bring both side together on the idea. I'm all for putting tariffs only against crap products, myself, and everything else trades at their normal prices, but we'd do good if we saw that system survive for long. Next comes the spoiling, if the appropriate rate is not consumed near the rate at which it is produced. The real problem is we can't just load surplus onto a cart or truck or boat or something and easily move it to the countries that would need it more; send those starving children in China your mother keeps telling you about the greens you don't want to eat and assure it gets there? Brilliant.

Bah, idealism and broken systems, alike.

“Japan’s meat consumption had increased by 900% since 1955, in part because expanding incomes had enabled families to supplement the sparse national diet of rice, fish and miso soup with more Western-style food.”

Many, many news articles have been focusing on Food As Fuel being the driving force behind rising prices, however, one of the studies I’ve recently seen (can’t find now) claims only about 5% of the rise in grain prices can be attributed to Food As Fuel. However, the rise in meat consumption in China over the last year accounted for 85% of the rise. Considering that it takes 10 bushels of grains to feed animals for every 1 bushel equivalent of calories for meat, even a small increase in meat consumption will have a multiplier effect on grains. Our current food shortages aren’t due to Food As Fuel, it’s due to the Chinese eating more meat.

We often hear the arguement that we could feed more people and save lives if everyone became vegetarians. Aside from the guilt trip this attempts to lay on people and aside from the fact that some of us get unwell if we don’t eat meat there’s an even greater problem.

It’s the same problem as finding a new energy source to replace oil gives us - if we get more resources we’ll just keep going until we use them us as well.

A few decades back we had the ‘green’ revolution where chemicals were used to increase the amount of food that our dying topsoil could produce - and it worked very well - it undoubtably saved lives *then* but the world’s population has continued to grow and now we have an even greater number of people facing certain starvation. If we all converted to become vegetarians it’s a sure bet that our insane culture would just continue on merely for another generation until an even greater number of people discovered the cupboard was bare.

It’s also worth noting that the only consistently sustainable cultures our planet has produced (so called primitive cultures) usually are meat.

Letter Re: The Food Shortages Are Real--Will There Be Panic Buying Soon?

James,
I've read the recent article in the New York Sun (Food Rationing Confronts Breadbasket of the World) regarding the [informal] food rationing that has now begun. Everything is starting to unfold quicker than expected, but it is not a huge surprise. I personally own a small and private operation (cash only) which sells large amounts of bulk food storage for those who have their eyes open and are awake to what's going on which is not many. We generally move large quantities of bagged and cleaned Wheat, lentils, soup peas, flax seed and all other manner of legumes( beans) and oats in in large quantities. [Some details deleted, for OPSEC.]

Anyway, the reason I'm contacting you is to let you know that we are now seeing massive shortages and in many cases completely empty warehouses here in western Canada. We work with the very largest suppliers in Western Canada right down to the the small growers. All of the large suppliers supplies are drying up as everything is being shipped out of country and overseas. Growers are hanging on to what little they have for the most part and are not selling out in most cases. Historically this has never happened [in Canada]. We've all taken for granted the availability of our food stuffs and now its crunch time. The global famine has now begun and once the panic of empty store shelves hits the local supermarket. All that I can say is that you had better be ready for a nationwide situation of hysteria and panic. Get what you can now, folks, because it will not be available soon! - LNL

If a crop becomes too available globally then the price plumets. If farmers can't get a good price for their crop they go into debt. Eventually the farmers lose their farms to the banks. The banks can't find people to buy the land to take on all of the liabilities of farming. Without farmers to farm the lands there are no crops. Now crops need to be imported affecting the balance of trade which eventually hurts the wealth of that nation. Also in wartime having to import all of your food can put you at a grave disadvantage if the enemy can block the supply routes.
