Financial Spread Trading ROME -- The war in Iraq could be devastating for the country's rural economy with consequences on farmers' capacity toproduce food, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) warned today. The winter grain harvest, set to begin in a few weeks, and the spring planting could both be affected.

Six other emergency projects to protect the harvest, increase food production, prevent outbreaks of animal diseases, ensure water supplies in rural areas, and coordinate relief efforts will require the remaining $66 million.
