=====Key Insights=====
Globalization has significantly impacted world agricultural trade from 1960 to 2050 by reducing cross-border trade costs, primarily due to advancements in information and communication technology and reductions in governmental distortions to agricultural production and trade. These changes have spurred economic growth and reduced poverty, particularly in Asia. Future food prices will be influenced by the continued pace of farm productivity growth, dietary shifts in emerging economies, crude oil prices affecting biofuel demand, climate change policies, water market developments, and market access standards, especially for genetically modified foods.  \\
