These countries are banning food exports (24/7 Wall St) 

July 04, 2022


24/7 Wall St published an article on how inflation is showing no signs of slowing down. One way that some countries are dealing with shortages of foods, cooking oil, etc., is by banning food exports. To determine the countries banning food exports, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed IFPRI’s Food & Fertilizer Export Restrictions Tracker. The nations on this list implemented food export restrictions after Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. The restrictions remained active as of June 21, 2022.
