Not if you produce more of it. If you produce more than is needed, wouldn't food prices go DOWN?

Except that using oil for fuel drives up the price of food too. I don't know if you've noticed, but the price of fuel (oil based) is up a wee bit lately. That has GOT to drive up the price of food! Unless you think you can till, plant, grow, harvest, store, process, and ship food without fuel.
