CNBC Indonesia published an article stating that the Ministry of Agriculture (Kementan) asks the public and the food industry to continue to be alert to the potential for a global food crisis. IFPRI data (see IFPRI tool, Food & Fertilizer Export Restrictions Tracker) show that throughout June 2022, there were various export restriction policies in several countries, either in the form of prohibitions, permits, and or export taxes. One of the restricted commodities is wheat. A number of wheat-producing countries, such as Russia, India, Serbia, Egypt, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Kosovo, issued restriction policies. This step was taken to maintain food stability in their respective countries. Republished in Berita Satu, Sonora (Indonesia).
