Yahoo Finance (Hong Kong) published an article stating that fears that this year’s harvest will be affected in Ukraine, a major exporter of grains, may come true after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Countries that rely on Ukrainian imports of wheat, corn, and sunflower oil could face crop shortages. Russia and Ukraine together supply nearly a third of the world’s wheat, a quarter of barley, and nearly three-quarters of sunflower oil, according to IFPRI (see the blog post, How will Russia’s invasion of Ukraine affect global food security?) Republished in cnyes (China).
