It would seem that the country's use of a variety of materials has dropped back to its second lowest level since records began and that this decline has been happening since well before the onset of the global economic crisis in 2007-08.
Greenpeace, the charity, estimates that 40% of the world's population are small farmers, the majority of them farming fewer than five acres and between them producing most of the world's food.
The authors of the report, The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2011, say that food insecurity is likely to grow and identifies 20 countries most at risk, the majority in Africa but some also in South Asia. They are most likely to be those that are highly dependent on importing food.

Even if we leave aside the questionable ethics of commodity price speculation on basic foods in a world where people starve in one place while food is thrown away in another, there is something badly out of balance with food production.
There is a growing feeling that the current crisis about food scarcity has less to do with the quantity of food being produced but is more a political problem and a failure to tackle the issues of uneven distribution and speculation on prices.
There is to be a UK Inside Government conference hosted by Defra (Department for the Environment, Food and Agriculture) in late June, called Meeting the Global Food Security Challenges of the Future Through Science and Innovation.

Successful Farm Insurance By: Martin Sejas | - When I met my husband, everything I knew about farming including Farmers Insurance, could be written down on a postage stamp.
