Now, for all you natural folks. That is fine except, without these fertilizers, crop production falls sharply resulting in the dramatic rise in a wide range of prices for products that depend on these crops. So it is not just FOOD we are talking about, but lots and lots of products.
Might work. Give the crops a Covid booster to be sure.

It’s what Plants Crave!
‘Tards too.

Grain prices also affect the price of livestock for meat production, as well as feed for diary products.
China, besides cornering the grain market and thus affecting grain prices, have also conducted a fertilizer tariff;
thus keeping all their fertilizers remaining within China.
The supply chain is just like a stack of dominoes lined up, one behind the other; when one falls, it begins a chain reaction of collapse.
Yep.
All the farmers friends I know are either gonna side dress the corn this year and cultivate, or plant it into something else.
The Dairy farmers I know are going to spread the cow s*it ahead of the spring planting, wait till the ground gets good and warm and get the corn in the ground so it gets up before the weeds and then cultivate. For cattle/Dairy, thats OK since corm usually goes for feed which depends on what animal that is getting the feed.
California will again prevent irrigation. So that is that.
As for the grain farmers, its side dress and cultivate.
BTW, they also are having a hard time getting a line on herbicides.
As for all the freak show trolls that have shown up here...these cute little city punks will find out when they cant afford what being put up on shelves in the stores.
No self respecting communist dictatorship is valid without a famine or two.
There are farmers who are exploring other options instead of the corporate industrial fertilizers. Check out this story:

Fantasies dont solve issues that are real and in the present.
On the permaculture forum I’m on, how to nurture the soil is a popular topic. My method is to turn part of my crop waste into biochar and mix it back into the soil. I’m only making tiny amounts so far, but I’m hoping to scale it up soon.
I think my little 1-acre garden is going to be essential soon.
