520 There has been an increase in food price instability in
recent years, with varied consequences for farmers, market
participants, and consumers. Before policy makers can
design schemes to reduce food price uncertainty or
ameliorate its effects, they must first understand the
factors that have contributed to recent price instability.
Does it arise primarily from technological or weather-
related supply shocks, or from changes in demand like
those induced by the growing use of biofuel? Does
financial speculation affect food price volatility? The
researchers who contributed to The Economics of Food Price
Volatility address these and other questions. They examine
the forces driving both recent and historical patterns in
food price volatility, as well as the effects of various
public policies in affecting this volatility. The chapters
include studies of the links between food and energy
markets, the impact of biofuel policy on the level and
variability of food prices, and the effects of weather-
related disruptions in supply. The findings shed light on
the way price volatility affects the welfare of farmers,
traders, and consumers.
