Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Content Global context Policy initiatives EC Response

Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Global context around 1 billion people are still chronically malnourished in Sub-Saharan Africa 1 in 3 people still do not have enough to eat The poor spend over half their income on food staples, and have no choice but to respond to higher prices by reducing consumption even further In Ethiopia, grain prices are 80% of family food cost; elsewhere, they are less than 5%

Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Global context

Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Global context High Food Prices –Structural level –Bubble (Prices peak) – Volatility has doubled over last ten years

Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Global context World grain prices are still 40% (maize) to 100% (rice) higher than the average. The recent decline in world grain prices has not translated into a matching decline in many countries where food markets are not fully integrated, as in landlocked Africa--grain not fully tradable, importance of local supply and demand: e.g. Sept. to Dec 2008: –World maize price down 32% –Nairobi maize price down 12% –Dar-es-salaam price up 16% Inputs are importables in most countries, thus prices keyed to world prices (esp. volatile oil prices) but increased by transport costs, exchange depreciation, etc.

Development and relations with African,Caribbean and Pacific States Global context The financial crisis is affecting all countries, making it even harder for the poor and their governments to adapt to food shocks: inflation, fiscal contraction Other coping mechanisms such as remittances to developing countries of US$250 billion in 2007 have started to collapse
