Ukraine is among Top-5 world food exporters. Over the first week of warfare on the territory of Ukraine, the cost of food wheat has increased by 100% and amounts to $400 per ton. For comparison, at the same period of 2021 the price for wheat was $150 per ton.
- Turkey and Egypt are particularly reliant on UA wheat.********
- Anyone trade 2x long wheat and make a small fortune?shapesalad
- yet another reason why Putin is invading; he wants to own that food productionKrassy

Looks like the whole of Novopskov in eastern Ukraine has come out to tell the bedraggled Russian soldiers occupying the town what its residents think: “War and death follows you wherever you go, get up and leave!” Crowd chanting “Ukraine!

Food insecurity might become a thing
https://ca.finance.yahoo.com/new…Hungary (12th in the world for grain export) has banned the export of grain.
Argentina looking to limit. Bulgarian exports stalling at port. Indonesia curbing palm oil exports.Why does this matter?
1. Ukraine was a large exporter of grain and oils. Worldwide, the same number of people still need to eat, so traders will look for alternative (secure) sources. That will vacuum up food from wherever it's cheapest, and may lead to domestic supply problems.
2. Russia (the largest exporter of grain) now has difficulty moving product to market, as shippers avoid Russia due to uncertainty around sanctions, insurance, payment. All this and drought in the middle east and north africa leading to higher than usual grain imports.
3. Russia ceased export of fertilizer. This means grain production becomes much costlier. This is on the backdrop of pre-war fertilizer prices rising by as much as 200% already for this growing season, with farmers fallowing land due to fertilizer prices that make their crops uneconomic. That price rise was due to natural gas prices rising in Q3/Q4 last year and European fertilizer plants shuttering production. This year's crop is likely to be smaller than previous years, amplifying the shortfall and increasing prices worldwide.- Four horsemen of the apocalypse

- How effective are tanks in urban setting? It seems they are the easiest target theredrgs
- Hard enough to stomach through a screen, once. Unimaginable to have that as your street for the foreseeable.Fax_Benson
- These are the young Russian soldiers Putin is sending into battle. They are reportedly being told anti-tank missiles "don't work"yuekit
- @drgs - if you're only facing soft-targets, then a tank is a great force projector in that environment. It's cover, quick cannon and heavy cannon in one.Nairn
- I saw video of the result of some poor Ukranians with molotovs going against an armoured column, and it's the Worst Shit I've seen in years.Nairn
