Can the World Feed Itself? Historic Fertilizer Crunch Threatens Food Security
And we have only ourselves to blame. Let’s get more specific. Not everyone will suffer the same way. The US has some of the best farmland that functions even without fertilizer. They will be fine and export. Some European countries such as France or even my own Austria are well enough so we will at least be able to sustain ourselves again with some exports possible. Developed countries will simply,y buy the food whatever the price but those not so well off will suffer badly. Expect revolutions and riots in many countries in the vicinity of Europe. Migration will swell.
