Talking food shortages, fear mantra of the "new normal"?

Still plenty of food on the store shelves here in NY and prices have been going down after a rise during the winter ...on fuel too.

Default Ice Age Farmer – It is Impossible Not to See That The Food War Has Begun


The food wars have gone hot -- and even the mainstream is noticing. Even as the fires and explosions destroying our food supply are broadly reported, the FBI warns of cyberattacks on farming infrastructure. As this awareness grows, one farm has stood up to NY state, refusing to comply with Bird Flu orders. Christian breaks it down in this Ice Age Farmer broadcast.

REUTERS FACT CHECK MAY 4, 20229:21 PM

Fact Check-Food processing plant fires in 2022 are not part of a conspiracy to trigger U.S. food shortages


By Reuters Fact Check

Social media users are sharing the claim that there is a planned increase in fires at food processing plants to purposefully create food shortages. However, there is no evidence to support this claim.

Examples can be seen (here) and (here).
(...)
The text in one post reads: “Food processing plants don’t just “accidentally” burn down at this rate and they certainly don’t “coincidentally” become landing pads for plane crashes at the rate they are. Our food supply is under attack in America. The question is—by who?”

One image (here) lists 12 fire incidents in food processing plants around the country.

There is no evidence to suggest that any of these fires were premeditated in an effort to create a food shortage.

‘Almost a quarter’ of humanity could go hungry – European leader


‘New problems’ could arise from hunger fueled by the conflict in Ukraine, says Serbia’s president



Nearly a quarter of the world’s population could run short of food if the war in Ukraine continues for much longer, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said during a speech at the 89th International Agricultural Fair in Novi Sad on Saturday.

“If something does not change in the conflict in Eastern Europe, almost a quarter of the world will be in need of basic quantities of food, which will create new problems,” Vucic said in an address opening the week-long event in the Serbian city, which brings together exhibitors from 21 countries.

However, earlier in May he stated that Serbia would be spared the food shortages that he predicted would hit a large part of the planet’s population next winter, which he said would be “the toughest in 70 years.”

Global food catastrophe imminent – The Economist


The impact of the Russia-Ukraine conflict could prompt mass hunger across the world, according to a report

The global food system, already weakened by pandemic-related shocks and the energy crisis, is expected to be severely impacted by the conflict in Ukraine and Western sanctions against Moscow, The Economist reports.

“Ukraine’s exports of grain and oilseeds have mostly stopped and Russia’s are threatened,” the report states.

According to the magazine, the two nations supply 12% of “traded calories.”

Earlier this week, wheat prices – up 53% since the start of 2022 – reportedly soared by further 6% shortly after India prohibited all exports of the vital food commodity with immediate effect because of an alarming heatwave.

In the 2021-2022 season, which began in July last year, Russian suppliers accounted for 16% of global wheat exports, and Ukrainian producers accounted for 10%. However, the conflict forced both nations to ban exports of the grain.

Kremlin lays blame for looming food crisis


Anti-Russia sanctions are at fault, not Moscow’s actions, President Putin’s press secretary has claimed



Sanctions imposed on Moscow are the real cause of a looming global food crisis, not Russia’s actions, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told journalists on Monday.

He said that Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres’ opinion that there was a risk of global hunger.

“That is true. But when it comes to grain, the president said that the imposed sanctions and restrictions led to the collapse that we are now witnessing,” Peskov revealed.

The US, the UK, the EU and many other countries have imposed hard-hitting penalties on Russia in response to its military operation in Ukraine. In Guterres’ view, Russia’s offensive in the neighboring country has added to the problems already affecting the situation on the food market, namely climate change and the fall out from the Covid-19 pandemic.

Global food crisis may spread from grain to sugar


Food security comes under threat as more nations consider limiting exports to cool down surging domestic prices

Sugar prices are expected to soar due to the export restrictions imposed by a number of key producing nations seeking to tame rising domestic food prices.

The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, which seriously undermined global supply chains, has been dramatically aggravated by the crisis in Ukraine and the subsequent sanctions imposed on Russia. The conflict between the two major grain exporters has disrupted global supplies.

A number of countries have moved to limit exports of other key commodities, putting global food security under threat, while risking further increases in the prices of agricultural products.

Russia not to blame for global food crisis – Putin


Moscow is ready to aid in transporting Ukrainian grain, but Western sanctions make it impossible, the Russian president has said



The restrictions imposed by the US and its allies against Russia and Belarus will only exacerbate the looming global food crisis by affecting the fertilizer trade and sending food prices even higher, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said.

In a special TV interview on Friday evening following a meeting with African Union head Macky Sall in Sochi, Putin accused Western leaders of trying "to shift the responsibility for what is happening in the world food market."

The root causes of the crisis lie with US financial policies during the Covid-19 pandemic and Western Europe's over-reliance on renewables and short-term gas contracts, which have led to price hikes and rising inflation, Putin has said.

Germany is committing national suicide


An eco-obsessed elite has sacrificed energy and food security to the climate agenda.

RALPH SCHOELLHAMMER
14th September 2022



The German government decided last week to temporarily halt the phasing-out of two nuclear power plants. This is an attempt to secure Germany’s energy supplies after Russia effectively turned off its gas exports to Germany.
(...)
Germany is staring into the abyss thanks to the energy crisis. German heavy industry may even have to cut back on production in order to cope with soaring energy costs. Steel manufacturer ArcelorMittal has already announced it is to shut down blast furnaces in some of its plants.
(...)
Russia’s ongoing gas squeeze has also affected Germany’s food production. As it stands, 70 per cent of Europe’s fertiliser production, which depends on gas, has been halted. This could seriously hinder agricultural output in 2023, and lead to massive shortages in food provision.

Fire breaks out at world’s biggest produce market in Paris


September 25, 2022

PARIS (AP) — A billowing column of dark smoke towered over Paris on Sunday from a warehouse blaze at a massive produce market that supplies the French capital and surrounding region with much of its fresh food and bills itself as the largest of its kind in the world.

Firefighters urged people to stay away from the area in Paris’ southern suburbs, as 100 officers and 30 fire engines battled the blaze at the Rungis International Market.

Putin slams West’s ‘predatory’ food ‘swindle’


The US and its rich allies are causing a global food crisis by draining the market, the Russian president claimed

“Predatory” monetary and trade policies pursued by the US-led west are the primary cause of the global food crisis, Russian President Vladimir Putin has said.

Western nations are using their wealth and ability to print money to vacuum up food products from the global market, the Russian leader insisted during a government meeting on Tuesday. The unfolding crisis has been in the making for several years, he added.

“Some leading nations have financial and food policies that led to the result we are observing now,” Putin said, adding that the behavior could be described as “predatory, without any exaggeration.”

Hurricane Ian's damage to Florida fertilizer plant creates 'concern' about rising food prices


Food industry analyst warns rising ingredient costs 'work their way into' prices at the grocery store

By Kristen Altus FOX Business

With Hurricane Ian forcing the temporary closure of one of America’s largest fertilizer production facilities, food industry and agriculture experts are warning it could cause a spike in grocery store prices.

"There's concern about storm surge, flooding, things that could impact land use, whether it's for growing crops, whether it's for fertilizer," Morning Consult analyst Emily Moquin told FOX Business’ Jeff Flock Thursday, "and eventually those things to work their way into the ingredient costs and then work their way down through the system to the prices that we see in the grocery store."

While Flock noted in his "Varney & Co." report that it’s not currently peak fertilizer season, Hurricane Ian forced Florida fertilizer maker Mosaic Co. to halt operations across Polk County for an unspecified amount of time as disaster relief efforts get underway.

The company’s North American phosphate operations make up "approximately 50 percent of North American farmers’ supply of granular phosphate fertilizer, and 12 percent of the global supply" in a given year, the company said in a fact sheet.

Britons skipping meals to save money – poll


People are reportedly eating less healthily and less often, preferably at a discount, due to the rising cost of living

Millions of British households are being forced to skip meals or buy cheaper food due to the rising cost of basic products, a consumer watchdog group has said, citing a new poll.

More than eight in 10 people in the UK (85%) are changing their eating habits in response to the rising cost of living, consumer champion Which? said on Thursday. The most popular way of coping with inflation is to seek promotional offers, which is what more than half (55%) of the respondents reported doing.

Food prices in UK could rocket even more after Putin blocked Black Sea grain exports from Ukraine: Hard-pressed Britons face paying even more for bread, pasta and wheat products


By STEWART CARR FOR MAILONLINE
PUBLISHED: 10:00 GMT, 30 October 2022 | UPDATED: 14:41 GMT, 30 October 2022

Britons have been warned that already rocketing food prices could go up even further after Russia blocked grain supplies from Ukraine.

Ukraine's exports were halted after Russia suspended its participation in a landmark agreement that allowed the vital shipments via the Black Sea, blaming 'drone attacks' on its ships in Crimea.

Ukraine - one of the world's largest exporters of grain - dubbed Russia's claims a 'false pretext' while President Biden condemned the move as 'purely outrageous' and Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Moscow was 'weaponising food'.

Of course, it's the jews, and not the Russians, that are responsible for this.

Cost of living: People in Cardiff 'eating pet food'


5 days ago

By Sarah Dickins & Steve Duffy
BBC Wales

People are having to eat pet food while others try to heat food on a radiator, a community worker with 20 years' experience has said.

Mark Seed now runs a community food project in Trowbridge, east Cardiff.

BBC Wales analysis of new Census data suggests six of Wales' most deprived communities are in the city.

A charity warns that struggling households do not just appear in areas long associated with poverty and policy needs to focus on people not places.

Trowbridge lies in what Mr Seed calls an "arc of poverty" from east to west of the Welsh capital, with issues endemic in his area.

"I'm still shocked by the fact that we have people who are eating pet food," he said.

"[There are] people who are trying to heat their food on a radiator or a candle.

UK risks sleepwalking into food supply crisis, says farmers’ union


NFU warns farmers are struggling with soaring cost of fuel, fertiliser and feed

Joanna Partridge and Kalyeena Makortoff
Tue 6 Dec 2022 08.14 GMT

Britain’s farmers are warning the government it risks “sleepwalking” into a food supply crisis unless it urgently provides support to those struggling with the soaring cost of the “three f’s”: fuel, feed and fertiliser.

The National Farmers Union (NFU) is warning current shortages of eggs could spread to other sectors, as UK fruit and vegetable growers and meat and dairy producers come under pressure from soaring costs for energy and animal feed, combined with the challenge of finding enough staff.

Energy-intensive crops including tomatoes, cucumbers and pears are on track for their lowest yields since records began in 1985, the NFU said, as producers leave agriculture in the face of rising costs.

“Huge issues for pigs, for poultry meat, for eggs, for fresh produce,” NFU president Minette Batters told journalists, warning that more reliance on food imports could further push up price inflation.

She said the domestic horticultural sector is “contracting”, while milk prices are expected to fall below the cost of production, and beef farmers are deciding whether to reduce their herds.

Farmers have faced surging costs since the outbreak of war in Ukraine, the NFU said, as fertiliser prices have tripled since 2019, on top of a six-fold increase in wholesale gas prices. The NFU said the UK had lost around 7,000 agricultural businesses since 2019.

Majority of Canadians fear struggle to feed families


Some 42% of respondents are also worried they’ll lose their jobs if the economy doesn’t improve

Canadians are growing increasingly worried about historically high inflation and a potential recession, with more than half of adults now fearing that they won’t be able to put food on the table for their families, a new poll has shown.

A poll conducted last month by Ipsos for Global News and released on Wednesday found that 53% of Canadians are fretting about whether they will be able to afford food, up nine percentage points from just a month ago. Concern over the economy also is rising, with 86% of respondents saying they’re worried about a recession hitting Canada within the next year, up from 83% in October.
