Its like its 2023 all over again? Another economic collapse for Russia?
Putin needs to STOP killing off young Russian men by stopping the war - AND we might have some extra illegals for him to 'pick the crops'...
Potatoes take about 80 to 100 days to grow.
Harvesting is usually in August & September.
Other crops grow faster.
Russia has lots of land for crops.

“Ukraine is the fifth largest producer of potatoes in the world. Annually, the country produces approximately 20 million tonnes, similar to the U.S. Most of that, however, is grown in small-scale, backyard plots for domestic consumption, explained Gordiichuk, who is one of just 20 seed potato producers in the country. Only about 55,000 hectares are under commercial production.
“Ukraine’s main export market was Russia, said Gordiichuk, but that market closed in 2014 when aggression first began. In fact, today, Ukraine doesn’t export any potatoes. The European Union has been closed to the country since 2002 due to three quarantine diseases.”

They have nothing to lose but their chains.
Such is the fate of KGB regimes.
