Senate Agriculture Committee member Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kansas, voices his concerns as lawmakers begin mark up on the Farm Bill, officially known as the Agriculture Reform, Food, and Jobs Act of 2013, Tuesday, May 14, 2013, on Capitol Hill in Washington. This is the third year in a row that farm-state lawmakers have tried to push the bill through; though it passed the Senate, the House declined to take up the bill last year after conservatives in that chamber objected to the bill's cost and insisted on higher cuts to food stamps.

Empresas Polar chief executive Lorenzo Mendoza points to a bag of corn flour as he gives a news conference at his office in Caracas, Venezuela, Monday, May 13, 2013. Mendoza said Monday that, in his words, "the accusations that we are producing less than last year are false," rejecting President Nicolas Maduro's claims that it's to blame for the country's persistent food shortages. Mendoza offered to buy or rent government-owned corn processing plants to increase Venezuela's production, and food makers say shortages of basic foods like sugar, milk, butter and cornmeal stem from the socialist government's price controls and a lack of foreign currency to pay for imports.
