		<description><![CDATA[With an increasing population that needs more food and more water to live, we can expect that water is going to become a highly strategic and needed resource.

This trend happened in the agriculture and food sectors just as well, and followed a rather simple [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=hfgfoodfuturist.com&amp;blog=7821215&amp;post=110&amp;subd=futurefood&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
