Raising prices in some food commodities, for instance cereals, rice, livestock and dairy products, can be characterized as global diverse factors, in terms of temporary and structural.
The diet revolution and food demand from new developing countries contribute to the rise in global food price. Apparently, food demand stimulated all kinds of investment in the agriculture field, in terms of purchasing farm and fertilizer.
Some expert on the conference implied, that the world's farming industry will face a period of uncertainty for at least 10 years over how far supply and demand can be balanced.

Agricultural representatives also call in major producer countries like China, Brazil and the United States to contribute more efforts on stabilizing food price, and China and India as major consuming areas should pay attention to investment on agriculture, which would bring huge opportunities.
