The long-term positive effect is the creation of a buffer against speculative increases in the world price of crude oil. However, the negative impact is the rise in global food prices, making them less affordable, particularly for the poor in underdeveloped countries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\"  class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/11\/TNP-2008-30-2_5_The-Food-and-the-Fuel-Issue.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:1090px\" aria-label=\"Embed of TNP 2008 (30, 2)_5_The Food and the Fuel Issue.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-d0433aca-558a-46af-b019-b27476519976\" href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/11\/TNP-2008-30-2_5_The-Food-and-the-Fuel-Issue.pdf\">TNP 2008 (30, 2)_5_The Food and the Fuel Issue<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/transactions.nast.ph\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/11\/TNP-2008-30-2_5_The-Food-and-the-Fuel-Issue.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-d0433aca-558a-46af-b019-b27476519976\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ricardo M.
