Inflation, Food Insecurity, and the Coming Global Food Order
The world is in the throes of a food emergency.
Overlapping crises, such as the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, wars in Ukraine and elsewhere, supply chain bottlenecks for both inputs like fertilizer and outputs like wheat, and natural disasters induced by climate change have caused what the United Nations has called “the greatest cost-of-living crisis in a generation.”
