Looks like we are at the end of #cheap #food now: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/e.. Everything that #food relies on, #natural #gar , #coal , #fertilizer , etc, has all gone up. There is no way #food #prices do not increase with it.
#fertilizer #shortage starting to #worry #farmers and their #crop #yields https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/al.. Is it time to start #panicking yet? If we lose the #food #supply , we really are in trouble...
Apparently #us #farmers are #ditching #corn and switching to #soy in order to save on #fertilizer #costs https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/fe.. This will have very #serious #sideeffects .
#biden #economists completely #oblivious to the #complications with "just #grow more" #signal to #farmers https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/t.. They *can't* - #fertilizer is through the roof, they might not have the #land , there is 4+ #months of #delay , etc.
The #food #shortages are going to cause a lot of #trouble https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/w.. #fertilizer #prices are through the #roof .
#canadians now #striking because of the #shortage of #fertilizer , a #critical part in #food #production https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/30.. This may be the single biggest problem in the last however many years, and I count in that #covid and the 2008 #financial #crisis

This is because the #nitrogen #fertilizer is #produced in part as a #byproduct of the #gas production #process ...It just doesn't stop... #china is now imposing an #export #restriction on #fertilizer - which will have massive #ramifications on #food #globally https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/ch.. Apparently this is in aid of curbing their own #food #inflation internally! Things are *very* bad!

For the love of god, we can't catch a #break - on top of #food #shortages (caused by tonnes of factors), we now have #fertilizer #shortages https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/fe.. This is beginning to look like a series of #persistent problems... A #global #crash is looking inevitable at this rate.
