"Winter Wheat: By April 24, eleven percent of the nation’s
winter wheat was headed, 5 percentage points behind last year
and 8 points behind the 5-year average. On April 24, twenty seven percent of the 2022 winter wheat crop was reported in good"

"The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) on Monday afternoon rated 27% of U.S. winter wheat in good-to-excellent condition, down three percentage points from a week ago and the lowest for this time of year since 1989, as drought persists in the Plains wheat belt.

A lower U.S. wheat crop would further exacerbate the supply tightness on the wheat market as Ukraine is likely to grow significantly less wheat this year on account of the war," Commerzbank said in a note."

Over a year or two we could lose 100s of millions globally to starvation. Many countries could see their bottom half starve. So sad. Innocents suffering for Global Warming and Global Putler.

Don't you see how they are culling 1st worlders with vaccines (biotech) and chemicals in food, etc and they obviously intend to depopulate the 3rd world through starvation and extreme poverty.

They are planning for inflation to kill currencies so the digital dolla will be the solution

Millions of hungry people will flood USA and Europe. Could be Putin's strategic plan from the beginning? He knows Russia cannot win over NATO militarily. But by flooding USA and Europe with poor, uneducated immigrants, the welfare systems may break down.

No, that's the other more eastern Asians...Indians eat potatoes (every dish with "aloo" in it) ,rice of course,too,but need wheat and other grains for their Naan bread, chicken peas for papadams and so on.but rice is the staple of many South Indian poor people.

No. Putin is not to blame here, he didn't even sanction fertilizer exports, because he doesn't want to starve people over the differences in Ukraine.not a putin fan boy here, but this one thing I must give him credit for.

no coincidences

India have buffer stocks that can last for more than 3 years and reduction in yield is not that much.

North and west Indians mostly eat wheat but south-east Indians eat rice mostly.

He started this war. All it will do is topple him. He is in so far over his head. He will mill himself, destroy Russia and his asinine war to no effect other than killing 10s if not 100’s of millions due to collateral effects. He is the frog in the soup pot. He already can’t get out.

All according to plan, the coming food crisis was war gamed out in 2015.

"On Monday and Tuesday, 65 international policymakers, academics, business and thought leaders gathered at the World Wildlife Fund’s headquarters in Washington DC to game out how the world would respond to a future food crisis. The game took the players from the year 2020 to 2030. As it was projected, the decade brought two major food crises, with prices approaching 400 percent of the long term average; a raft of climate-related extreme weather events; governments toppling in Pakistan and Ukraine; and famine and refugee crises in Bangladesh, Myanmar, Chad and Sudan."

Harrp

worse than he thought. I was thinking he was gonna say its not as bad. I've been prepping slowly. Maybe need to increase the amounts

Indians eat both rice and wheat. Naan and roti are breads made from wheat flour.

They also use lentils to make papadam (sp?) which is a flat crispy thing that's tasty as well as dosa, something used for wraps.

If they ran out of wheat in India, it's not the end of the world for them.

Its funny since they have weather modification patents going back over 60 years. There is no excuses for heatwaves. They only use the weather weapons for harm , not good

Yup draining reservoirs and printing money and giving it to farmers to destroy there crop , Wake the fuck up people.Take your fuckin states and provinces back now.
