Abstract: During the 20th century, the development of the contemporary agricultural revolution and of the green revolution have driven the explosion of inequalities of production per worker and per year between the different agricultures of the world. This development has also entailed a long run decrease of real agricultural prices, as well as surpluses which prices are dumped on international markets. In most countries, the tendency to bring agricultural prices near international prices is blocking the development and is impoverishing till ruin hundreds of million of poorly equipped and low productive peasants. In order to save this peasantry, to spur a sustainable raise of world agricultural production and to stimulate global demand, it is necessary to promote a new organization of international agricultural trade.
