Christian Science Monitor published an article stating that agricultural and food production experts are convinced that with the right seeds, better technology, improved storage and delivery infrastructure, and stronger climate resilience, farmers can do much more. However, there is a growing threat to food availability– “food nationalism” –the tendency of some food-producing countries to respond to higher food prices by imposing export taxes or taking other measures to discourage food exports and build up food stocks at home. Senior research fellow Joseph Glauber says, “Markets are actually performing pretty well. People can get grains; they’re just more expensive.” He offers the example of Morocco, which he says turned to Ukraine last year following a serious drought that hit domestic production. But with Ukraine cut off, Morocco has had to turn elsewhere. “You can get grain from Australia,” he says, “but it’s more expensive.”
