Food shortages

[bigpaul]

its to do with Sunflower oil, 50% of the world supply comes from Russia and Ukraine.
fast food dosent bother me and the wife at all, and we havent had fish and chips for about 3 or more years due to the Pandemic.
Fertiliser will be a problem in the years to come for Farmers, not this year as they have already bought and used their supplies for this year, most fertiliser or at least the components for it seem to be imported from Russia.
I grow some of my own veg but I dont use fertiliser its more a problem for the agricultural sector.
there was a piece in the papers yesterday about a food bank that also gives cooking lessons , it may be the only one that does. cooking was never a problem for me, my mother taught me to cook before I was 12 years old but many of my friends and also their other halves cannot and its a problem in wider society which is why ready meals are so common.
