High prices, low supply forcing many countries to BAN food exports (Investment Watch) 

February 10, 2023


Investment Watch published a report on food prices and how countries are dealing with supply and demand. High prices and low supply have prompted nations to halt food exports for now. 

According to a report by the International Food Policy Research Institute, other countries that prevented their produce from moving outward beyond the end of 2022 include Turkey, Argentina, India, Malaysia, Serbia, Egypt, Iran, Tunisia, Pakistan, and Kuwait. Only Argentina, which capped the export volume of wheat and corn due to domestic inflation, ended its restrictions on Dec. 31, 2022.
