Are greedy farmers to blame for increasing food prices?

Asked by josie (30934points) January 17th, 2011

When gasoline prices go up, there is usually a chorus of criticism about greedy oil companies.
When drug prices go up, it can only be because big drug companies are greedy.
When the rent goes up, it is always the greedy landlord’s fault.
Etc.
Food prices are going up.
Are greedy farmers to blame? How can we get back at them?
