How about Dairypedia?

It's great to have all agri-content at one plce. Dairy being a considerable chunk of the agricultural sector, it would be beneficial to have a 'DairyPedia' developed here as a subset of agropedia. A separate Dairy section can be created, wherein users can post data/articles/papers, etc. related to the Indian dairy sector.

FAO food price index heading upwards again

The FAO food price index for December 2009 shows that global food prices are on the ascent again.
