About this ebook
In the short run the rural rich in Bangladesh are likely to gain, and the rural poor to lose, from an increase in the relative price of food staples in a food producing economy. But in the long run the welfare of a typical poor household will be neutral to such price increases (after allowing for wage adjustment), and the poorest households will benefit somewhat.
