This combined with Russia blockading Ukraine in the Black Sea could cause a lot of hunger in other parts of the world.
It’s mostly the Black Sea blockade. The number I heard is that at best they can ship about 1/5 by rail they could by sea and it’s way more expensive. And because they use a different rail gauge than the rest of Europe everything has to be unloaded and reloaded, it can’t even go direct to a port.
