Yes, the COVID-19 epidemic in the past three years has brought many challenges to global food. At present, wars are raging all over the world, especially the serious conflict between Russia and Ukraine, which makes the grain and oil exported by the two countries to all countries in the world increasingly short, which in turn leads many countries to restrict export trade. If the conflict between Russia and Ukraine cannot be alleviated, coupled with frequent natural disasters in other countries in the world, it is bound to usher in a global food crisis. So now countries pay more and more attention to food. On the one hand, they import food from foreign countries as much as possible, on the other hand, they limit their own food exports as much as possible.

As we all know, India, Thailand and Vietnam are the top three countries in the world in terms of rice exports, accounting for 70% of the world's total exports. According to the Future Daily, India, Thailand and Vietnam, the top three rice exporters in the world, are suddenly eyeing rice. On the one hand, a Thai government spokesman said that Thailand and Vietnam plan to jointly raise rice prices; On the other hand, according to the Economic Times, the Indian government may also tighten rice exports. Judging from these two operations, the rice exports of these three countries to the world may decrease in the future, or other countries can no longer import rice as usual because of the increase in rice prices, thus leading to a global food crisis.

In particular, Russia has also made the latest statement. Russian President Vladimir Putin said that Russia is prepared to contribute to overcoming the global food crisis by exporting grain and fertilizer, but only if the politically motivated restrictions imposed by the West are lifted. In other words, if the west does not remove the political motives of the current situation, then Russia may not export grain and fertilizer to overcome the global food crisis, which undoubtedly adds another uncertainty to the global food crisis. Moreover, we must also know that since the war with Russia, the shortage of food supply and the rising prices of waste and food caused by the Ukrainian crisis have increased the number of hungry residents in the world to 220 million.

Generally speaking, judging from the global food situation, there will be a food crisis in the future, and all countries should pay more attention to food!
