Reply #526: You're assuming that economies of scale hold true for the agriculture market

Some disagree with that...

Also, increased demand doesn't lower prices it raises them. If somehow the increased demand drives the agriculture industry to find ways to produce cheaper or more efficiently then yes prices will go down. But that is particularly unlikely given that the government subsidizes agriculture meaning that inefficient producers can avoid being destruction by market forces.
