World Bank Presentation
• Evaluate potential scenarios• Where will food be grown?
– Northern shift?– Food production in equatorial and arid regions? Elsewhere?– SPS Issues: Animal, Plant and Human Disease and Pests Issues– Impact on Trade Patterns
• How will food and goods be shipped?– Inland waterways– Ocean transportation
• In what form will food be shipped: Bulk, Fresh, Frozen, Cooked,Processed?
• What does this portend for Economic Growth, Food Production, Marketing, Risk Management, Food Security, Customer Demands, Operations, and Regulatory and Trade Measures?
