Does the war in Ukraine effect global grain stocks in any real way?


Recommended Posts

I've been told that the Russian targeting of Ukrainian farmland as a means of attrition during the war every spring leads to increases grain stocks in other countries as the demand for global grain remains the same but the supply goes down since Ukraine is a major grain exporter. However, I have seen no proof of this, at least regarding the grain stocks I have looked at. Could someone help me out with this?

Well seeing as how Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba completely disappeared along with CN & CP rail and every diesel semi truck for a long while it was a convenient excuse to gouge shoppers for a while.
Now if Australia and New Zealand ever get ships again, we might see something in stores besides the "rack" of lamb priced like it flown in by helicopters.

But welcome to a World economy run by the rich where a couple Houthi rockets forces you to pay 30% more for Alberta and Alaska oil.
