 Global food shortage fears as Russia extends wheat banGlobal food shortage fears as Russia extends wheat ban
Vladimir Putin has announced Russia will not lift a ban on grain exports before next year’s harvest, extending the embargo for another year, sparking fears over a global food shortage. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldne ... t-ban.html The Russian prime minister said that it was “necessary to note that we will only be able to consider lifting the grain export ban after next year’s harvest ... and we have clarity on the balances”. His announcement came after deadly protests in Mozambique and the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organisation calling an emergency meeting to discuss the shortages. _________________ In loving memory of my son Chris April 12 1985-June 19 2007 I don’t think it’s a matter of “is it coming.” I think that it’s already here, it’s just a matter of perspective. From one perspective, our frog friends are telling us that we should be grateful that the “spa” is hot and luxurious. From the cook’s perspective… another 10 minutes and we’ll be dinner. |

 Re: Global food shortage fears as Russia extends wheat banSaw this as a banner on CNN over the weekend. Certainly a heads up on the prepping side.
