The modern colonial

The gap between "developed countries" and "Developing countries" is simply the result of the old colonial system . The agricultural policy of the colonial powers did not consider the food security of local people, but simply the cultivation of grains and plants for their own commercial goals. The situation today, not much seems changed.

We are witnessing a new phenomenon at the global level. And 'the acquisition by multimillionaires, corporations and PS large tracts of land in developing countries.

... Why buy land in poor countries?

is given more attention to crops for biofuel production , since the shortage of oil is getting bigger.

China, India, Japan, South Korea and others who have a great economic dynamism, face the highest rates and the demographic problem that stands in front is the shortage of arable land in order to be able to feed their peoples.

In fact most of the lands that make up these countries, which are bought, stolen, leased to the developing countries are not suitable for food crops of the people, but serve to be transformed into biofuels . Not all investments in developing countries, therefore, are driven by noble principles.

Some scholars support the thesis of a new colonialism , alleging that arable land in the Fourth World countries are quietly expropriated farmers who lose therefore also access water and other vital resources . The land is for industrial agriculture, water consumption is as high levels of soil contamination due to the intensive use of chemical fertilizers.

Other economists and scholars argue that such investments are a positive aspect for developing countries, in especially because they have a positive impact on employment and technological progress.

I hope you remember the case of an Asian tiger that is South Korea and the land of the fourth world, Madagascar . The actors are the multinational Daewoo Logistics Corporation (DWL), the Malagasy government and people ... I do not know about you, but I am of noble principles, in that case, I have not seen and I do not see this day.
