There is widespread international concern that Russia's war will provoke a global food crisis similar to, or | |
worse than, that faced in 2007 and 2008. The war comes at a time when the global food system was already | |
struggling to feed its growing population in a sustainable way, under the pressure caused by climate change | |
and the Covid-19 pandemic. Russia and Ukraine are key agricultural players, together exporting nearly 12 | |
% of food calories traded globally. They are major providers of basic agro-commodities, including wheat, | |
maize and sunflower oil, and Russia is the world's top exporter of fertilisers. The global supply chain will | |
get impacted until Russia and Ukraine retreat and will end the war. | |
The war's impact on global food supply centred on three factors. First is a significant reduction in exports | |
and production of essential commodities from both countries, caused by the war and not the economic | |
sanctions imposed on Russia, which, intentionally, did not target the agricultural sector. Overall, the | |
European Commission estimates that 'up to 25 million tonnes of wheat would need to be substituted to | |
meet worldwide food needs in the current and the next season. Second factor is a global spike in prices of | |
food supplies and inputs needed for agri-food production, which were already at record levels before the | |
war. The war has further pushed the prices up. Third factor is the international response to the above, | |
which could either amplify the effects of the crisis (mainly by uncoordinated export bans) or mitigate them | |
(applying lessons learnt from the 2007-2008 food crisis). A number of countries, other than Russia and | |
Ukraine, have already imposed or announced their intention to impose some control over exports of | |
essential agricultural commodities, including Egypt, Argentina, Indonesia, Serbia, Turkey and, in the EU, | |
Hungary. We should keep this in our mind that the long duration of war will make the global situation | |
irrecoverable. | |
