Looks like bungling Biden's meddling in Europe is about to blow up even bigger
- Thread starter Legion

Finally, a weight-loss program that works! The Biden's Bungling Plan!
Considered the breadbasket of Europe, 71 percent of Ukraine’s land is agricultural. It is also home to a quarter of the world’s ‘black soil’, or chernozem, which is highly fertile.

No.
Russia is the world’s biggest fertilizer exporter. Guess what that means for global agriculture.

Kansas?
Some.
Wheat is produced on the third most acres in the United States following corn and soybeans. In 2021, the United States produced 1.65 billion bushels of wheat on 37.2 million acres. The most wheat produced in a year in the U.S. was 2.5 billion bushels in 1998 and in 2008. The states with the largest area planted to wheat in 2021 were: Kansas (7.3 million acres), North Dakota (6.5 million acres), Montana (5.5 million acres), Texas (5.5 million acres) and Oklahoma (4.4 million acres). The average yield for wheat in the USA in 2021 was 44.3 bu per acre, with Arizona, California and Kentucky recording the highest yields.

And Canada.
Now, check out what's happening to the cost of fertilizer.
Then add agricultural diesel, and marine diesel fuel that's needed to export our grain.
You miss the fact the democrat party leadership wants a war.
I don't think I did.
They need a villain to blame for what their far-left agenda has done to America.
Fertilizer prices surge in signal of worsening food inflation
Fertilizer prices continue to surge as supply upheaval from Russia leaves governments struggling to secure vital crop nutrients, adding to concerns that record global food inflation will accelerate.
The Green Markets North American Fertilizer Index jumped 16% Friday to a new high.
Prices for the widely used nutrient urea in New Orleans soared 22%, also reaching a record.
And an index for potash in Brazil rocketed a record 34%.
Russia is a huge low-cost exporter of every major kind of crop nutrient.
The country urged domestic fertilizer producers to reduce exports earlier this month, stoking fears of shortages.
The war also is pushing up the cost of natural gas, the main input for most nitrogen fertilizer, forcing producers in Europe to cut output.
At the same time, prices for staple crops like wheat and corn are soaring, as war in one of the world’s breadbaskets threatens to push millions more into hunger.
“It’s a slow-moving disaster,” said Alexis Maxwell, an analyst at Bloomberg’s Green Markets.
I hope the virtue signalers are willing to lose weight because of their support for Bungling Biden's meddling in Europe.

Bungling Biden has brought the whole world to the brink of a food crisis
The world is careening toward a food crisis that could affect billions of people.
Record high natural gas prices have forced the company Tore Holsether runs, fertilizer producer Yara International, to curtail its production of ammonia and urea in Europe to 45% of capacity.
With less of those two essential agricultural ingredients, he expects knock-on effects for global food supplies.
"It's not whether we are going to have a food crisis. It's how large that crisis will be," Holsether told CNN.
After bungling Biden's sanctions failed, the prices of key agricultural products have skyrocketed.
The biggest problem is wheat, a pantry staple.
Supplies from Russia and Ukraine, which together account for almost 30% of global wheat trade, are now at risk.
Global wheat prices hit an all-time high this week.
Another major problem is access to fertilizer.
Essential for farmers to hit their production targets for crops, it's never been more expensive, as exports from Russia were halted by bungling Biden.
Output in Europe has also plunged thanks to the surging price of Russian natural gas, a key ingredient in nitrogen-based fertilizers like urea.
The situation is ringing alarm bells for global health experts.
The cost of corn, soybeans and vegetable oils has been jumping, too.
Agriculture ministers from the G7 countries said Friday they "remain determined to do what is necessary to prevent and respond to a food crisis."
But fearing shortages, countries are already turning inward, which could ultimately leave less food for those in need.
Egypt just banned the export of wheat, flour, lentils and beans amid growing concerns over food reserves in the Arab world's most populous state.
Indonesia has also tightened export restrictions on palm oil, which is a component in cooking oil as well as in cosmetics and some packaged goods like chocolate. It's the world's top producer of the product.
The G7 ministers called on countries to "keep their food and agricultural markets open and to guard against any unjustified restrictive measures on their exports."
"Any further increase in food price levels and volatility in international markets could threaten food security and nutrition at a global scale, especially among the most vulnerable living in environments of low food security," they said in a statement.
Western countries with more access to agriculture will be hurt, too. Consumers there have already been stung by higher prices, and the situation is poised to deteriorate further.
All because Biden bungled. Again.

Your rancid and squalid source is a form of bungling bs. Now consider some facts versus your trolling fiction and for the following reasons as it is tRump who is primarily at fault for this entire global outrage:
Russia's invasion puts a new light on Trump's Ukraine pressure campaign
Trump was withholding hundreds of millions of dollars in aid for Ukraine's defense as he was asking its president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, to investigate Trump's potential 2020 rival, Joe Biden, and his son, Hunter Biden.
That 2019 call got Trump impeached. But the Senate acquitted him, and he dismissed the controversy as a politically motivated hit job — and his base went along.
Now, with Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine and Zelenskyy being hailed around the world as a hero for his resolve, that call is put into a very different light.
"There's just a lot of evidence that Trump was wrong on this issue [Ukraine] and that in many ways, we undermined the NATO alliance and we undermined Zelenskyy's position in the eyes of Russia and Putin," said Kevin Madden, a Republican strategist and former senior adviser on Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign."
