“Un pays devient dépendant en poursuivant une politique agricole basée sur les avantages comparatifs qui consistent à produire pour exporter des produits agricoles hors saisons et/ou rares sur les marchés mondiaux, tels que les dattes, les agrumes et autres primeurs, et importer des produits alimentaires de base tels que les céréales.  Ainsi, non seulement on épuise les ressources locales, au détriment de la paysannerie et des populations locales, pour nourrir le marché mondial et les comptes bancaires des grands investisseurs, mais on se soumet aux mécanismes d’un système alimentaire mondial sur lequel la capacité d’influence d’un pays dépendant est pratiquement insignifiante.” Pays dont la souveraineté politique économique est réduite
