I read a few years ago that by 2100, with the available farm land we have for corn today, the yield would need to be 800 bushels/acre to keep pace with population growth.

IMO, way too many variables to make such a prediction. However, it does make one think about where this is all headed.

Who could have ever imagined that by 2020 200 bushels per acre would be so common that no one talks about it, and 300 bushes happens often.

I read the same prediction, but said that the world would be starving by 2000.

Now most the world is fat.
