He predicted the 2008 crash, now Professor Steve Keen warns the Iran war is coming for your food prices.
Professor Steve Keen is the world's first rebel economist to predict the 2008 financial crisis years before it happened, based on his proprietary data software, Ravel©. He has spent over 30 years as an academic, and is currently a visiting scholar at the University of Amsterdam.
He explains: ◼ Why your food prices could double and the one resource nobody is talking about ◼ The 5 ways this war could end and which scenario keeps you safest ◼ How one 20km gap controls your phone, your heating, and your food ◼ Why nobody around Trump will tell him he's losing and what that means for you ◼ How AI could wipe out half of all jobs and what you should do right now

I had to look this up.
The Persian Gulf region produces vast amounts of urea—accounting for roughly 36% of global exports—due to its immense, cheap reserves of natural gas, which is the foundational feedstock for nitrogen fertilizer.
Countries like Qatar, Iran, and Saudi Arabia leverage this abundance to produce ammonia, then convert it into urea (46% nitrogen), making it a massive industrial hub for global agriculture.
Industrial Formation of Urea
Urea is also produced industrially at scale, mainly for fertilizers by reacting synthetic ammonia with carbon dioxide at high pressures and temperatures.
Process: Ammonia and carbon dioxide are converted into ammonium carbamate, which is then dehydrated to produce urea.

Pfffft...
Look at the bright side... at least there won't be a run on toilet paper in the stores this time.

If fertilizer goes up in price, farmers will stop wasting it (and allowing it to run off into our waterways killing all the fish downstream and contaminating municipal water supplies along the way).
Bet me. This loser isn’t worth the time it takes to finish th
I’m stocking up on canned soup!
We’re all gonna die!

But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.

“Ain’t that the truth.”
8 - 10 dollar a gallon diesel makes farming impractical at the current commodity prices. We are at 8 dollars a gallon diesel now in California. This will cause major disruption in food production and distribution.
