Everyone just about exhausted their emergency supply of MRE's? The only thing that causes food shortages in modern societies is politics. Look at Ethiopia which has always been a poster child for famine, despite the poverty, cycle of droughts and hunger the region is producing and exporting huge surpluses of food on private farms owned by mid east governments.

New York State is banning all phosphorous fertilizer by 2012. Plants that are phosphorous deficient will also contribute to global famine. We are doomed.
