We have been warned that a devastating food crisis would hit the entire planet sooner rather than later. But most of us didn’t imagine things would actually escalate so quickly. The global food crisis we were told to prepare for is already upon us, and it is reaching apocalyptic proportions as problems continue to pile up. Millions of people that are already facing hunger will be pushed to the brink of starvation in the coming months. Even those who have been insulated from such problems up until this point are likely to experience food insecurity this year as shortages become far more extensive than anticipated. Farmers, industry executives, and global authorities are saying that there isn’t going to be enough food for everyone in 2022. And if all of that seems too hard to believe, hopefully, you’ll change your mind and start preparing after your watch this video.
The food crisis that is now unfolding all over the world is developing so rapidly that global leaders are getting extremely fearful about the short-term future of humanity. In recent weeks, a number of authorities, industry executives, and farmers came forward to warn about the severity of the situation. On Saturday, the CEO of Gro Intelligence told the UN Security Council that the world will enter a critical phase in less than three months as food supplies continue to get tighter and tighter. Sara Menker alerted that the planet only has 10 weeks’ worth of wheat left to deal with the crisis before it reaches catastrophic levels.
We are all going to be affected by this tragedy, but we have to remind ourselves that we were already heading towards a historic global food crisis way before the conflict in Ukraine erupted, and one of the main factors fueling this disaster is the fact that fertilizers are in short supply everywhere in the world, and prices are surging to unprecedented highs.
Massive fertilizer shortages are leaving farmers, fertilizer companies, and governments around the globe scrambling to avert a seemingly inevitable tumble in crop yields. And while some farmers in the western world can still afford to pay the higher prices, in poorer nations, millions of farmers are being forced to cut back on fertilizer, and in some cases, abandon their crops altogether. Consequently, food production will be way down this year.
Sadly, this is just the tip of the iceberg. The real problem will be the food that is not grown and not harvested this year. Soon, winter wheat will be harvested in the U.S., and according to Bloomberg data, thanks to the historic drought in the western half of the country it is being projected that the total amount harvested will be the smallest in almost 60 years.
“Some farmers already are writing off losses from parched grains. The US Department of Agriculture expects lower yields in Kansas, the top-growing state for hard red winter wheat, a staple relied on for bread flour. The shortfall is seen by USDA as pushing national production to the smallest since 1963,” Bloomberg reported. We have to consider that in 1963, the population of the United States was 189 million. Today, the population of the United States is 329 million. This crisis is so serious that the vast majority of us have absolutely no frame of reference for what is about to happen. A “perfect storm” is already upon us, and the most worrying part of it all is that most of us remain completely and utterly unprepared for it.
