UN warns global food prices, already at record high, could surge another 22 percent

The United Nations warned in a report released Friday that global food prices could surge another 22 percent in response to the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), a branch of the United Nations, said that food prices have already reached record highs, and are likely to get higher.

The report states that the output of food production in Ukraine and Russia put together accounts for over a tenth of global calories.

The global food output of the countries has fallen since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, resulting in a "sudden and steep reduction" of exports from the countries.

1. This will hurt the Russian people the hardest..

Because of the insanity of their leader.

The world will find a way to get through this.

3. It won't be the farmers profiting from higher prices.

It will be the corporations that create food bottlenecks.

Giant corporations actually make more money by NOT effectively providing the goods and services they sell.

Works in Big Oil, Big Pharma, Big Healthcare, and Big Agriculture.

Consumers around the world will suffer more and more unless these corporations are broken up.
