America has all it needs to be an island unto itself, but our betters seem to think that means we’re a racist, bigoted patriarchy, and so we need to be “taken down a peg” as a result.
I wonder if all this scare mongering is bullchit?
Nothing is going to get better until the pipe lines are flowing and well opened Biden a stooge crew have no idea how things work in the real world in utopia it is to be a slave to the state.
(From the article):" The world’s largest fertilizer company warned supply disruptions could extend into 2023.
A bulk of the world’s supply has been taken offline due to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.
This has sparked soaring prices and shortages of crop nutrients in top growing areas worldwide;
an early indication of a global food crisis could be in the beginning innings."
"Bloomberg reports Canada-based Nutrien Ltd.’s CEO Ken Seitz told investors on Tuesday during a conference call that he expects to increase potash production
following supply disruptions in Russia and Ukraine (both major fertilizer suppliers).
Seitz expects disruptions “could last well beyond 2022.”
" Seitz said the conflict plus Western sanctions on Russia and Belarus has reduced fertilizer supply on global markets
and could reshape crop nutrient trade, thus creating even more supply uncertainty. "
"Here are the latest signs commercial farmers worldwide are reducing fertilizer usage because of higher prices or shortages.
Revealed last week, SLC Agricola SA, one of Brazil’s largest farming operations, managing fields of soybeans, corn,
and cotton fields in an area larger than the state of Delaware, will reduce the use of fertilizer by 20% and 25%. "
"The International Fertilizer Development Center (IFDC) warned a reduction in fertilizer use would shrink yields of rice and corn come harvest time.
Farmers in China, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Vietnam — the largest rice-producing countries — are spreading less fertilizer,
and may result in a 10% reduction in output, equating to about 36 million tons of rice, or enough food to feed a half billion people."
Fertilizer prices in North America have surged hundreds of percent since the summer of 2020.
“Maybe it will be a two-year problem and even then it will take two to four years after that for the deficit
to catch up,” The Mosaic Company’s CEO Joc O’Rourke told investors during a call on Tuesday.
Mosaic is a top fertilizer company in the US."
