Food
We look at the two extremes of the world food industry. Can a new scheme help poor African farmers play a bigger part in the world market and ensure they don't go short?
Business Daily looks at the two extremes of the world food industry - the vast companies that control global food supplies and the people who have too little food - those starving in the Horn of Africa.
Can a new scheme help these poor farmers play a bigger part in the world market and ensure they don't go short? Jonathan Frewin speaks to Greg Page the Chairman and Chief Executive of Cargill, one of the world's largest food companies.
Plus Justin Rowlatt speaks to Stanlake Samkange, the World Food Programme's Regional Director for East and Central Africa.
And our regular commentator Wycliffe Muga explains how someone always benefits from tragedy, even in the worst famine this century.
