Description

For the second part of this episode, we shifted the conversation with Jenik Radon to focus on the food supply crisis that has been driven by an increase in fertilizer prices as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. When natural gas prices rise, so do fertilizer prices, leading to increased input costs for farmers and growers worldwide. Our global food system is under an existential threat as margins and profitability diminish. Meanwhile, diplomatic and economic measures are focused on political favour in Eastern Europe. Laura Negre’s conversation with Jenik asks a crucial question: what must be done to lessen the impact on the countries hit the hardest?
