I posed yet another question at the World Economic Forum via Livestream to the panel comprising of the Tanzanian President and some company representatives who are launching an initiative to help agriculture in the East African nation. The question, and the subsequent answers from the panel, can be found in 24:20 onwards.
Admittedly it was a blunt question put forward, but I asked it in order to ensure that the foreign companies who invested in African nations (Tanzania in this case) do not attempt to dominate any food surplus in lieu of their charitable efforts towards development. The market should dictate prices, and I believe that priority should be given to aid neighboring countries who are still working out their own development plans. This was also asked in view the the global food crisis plaguing the region today.
