Middleman not villain in food price rise says New York AP
A New York AP analysis argues there were no villains in the 12.2 percent food price rise last year. Factors include higher world oil prices, end of price controls, rising wages, and more dining out. Consumers increasingly buy convenience foods and pay others to process, while 40 percent of the bill goes to farmers and 60 percent to processors, wholesalers, and retailers.
