It became worse in my country. All agricultural products have been increasing in price. I think that there's a very wrong system that's happening in my country from farm to market distribution. It is because it's not the government that does this distribution but it's the independent businessmen that do this. So, the cost coming from the farm going to another middleman and even before going to the market, there have been a lot of hands that have touched the food products so there's a huge margin that's being placed before going to the consumer. I still look forward that there's hope on this problem. Yes, it's global problem but this shouldn't be affecting the local markets that we've got in terms of food production and delivery. The government should remove all of those middleman so there won't be a lot of margin that becomes the burden of us, consumers.

It cannot be denied that those who manipulate market prices are intermediaries. And answering this question is very difficult because intermediaries and farmers are interrelated. What happens where I live is that many farmers want to farm but run out of capital and the only way to get capital to farm is to borrow from middlemen. When farmers borrow capital from middlemen, there is usually an agreement between the two parties, "where like it or not, when post-harvest arrives, farmers who borrow money from middlemen do not only have to pay back the money they borrowed. "But they (farmers) also have to sell their crops to middlemen."
and it is true that the problem of increasing food prices is caused by middlemen so that farmers cannot sell their crops directly to consumers.

It's the same with our local farmers, they're borrowing money to have capital for their farm lands. But it's not even guaranteed that they'll earn from all of their hard work. It's because of many factors like our country is always being hit by natural disasters especially with typhoons, not just that but super typhoons and all of their hard work turns into vain. Aside from that, the manipulation in the market when they harvest is at worst. It's always the farmers harvest' that are being taken for granted because at most times, they're being low balled while the middlemen and businessmen that puts less effort on this business are even making more than what the farmers deserve.

Every farmer is in trouble. The middleman eats everything and governments need to take some action for the direct buying from the people, so that benefits will directly reach the farmers who are one to profit. These days environmental changes have brought the rain vary from the calculation. This will affect the planned cultivation, and in my country the government have made some fast check as some middleman have kept hold of good volume of wheat to manipulate the price. Through proper investigation this had been caught and the price of wheat is well balanced than allowing it to rise deeper. So, rather than the farmers the middleman eats and the crisis keeps going.

I am not sure where you live but in our country government built irrigation that was temporary and built by farmers before government just funded it to make it concrete so that it would be permanent and the flow of water would be distributed evenly. It might be one of the reasons why government won't fund that area because farmers don't take initiative and also because government thinks that no one will make that empty land into a farm.

Although you have a point here, we cannot ignore that there are countries wherein the government are the ones that lacks actions and concern for the agricultural sector of the country they are governing. For example, in my country there have been various call to action and protest of farmers and majority of society for our government to listen to the needs of agriculture as it has been obvious that this sector of the country is having a major downfall yet to proper action has still been taken.

agree with that. And indeed I often encounter things like this in the area where I live. Indeed, the central government itself, through the Ministry of Agriculture, always makes policies and programs to deal with agricultural problems and increase the country's food security. However, it is very unfortunate because the implementation of this program requires a long process and goes through several hands so that the goals of the central government and the ministry of agriculture cannot be achieved optimally and produce good results.

The food crisis has always been a hot topic of discussion. Because basically this also concerns how we survive and how to avoid crises that occur in the food sector. Of course there are many reasons behind why there is a food crisis, whether it's due to drastic climate change, crop failure, floods and natural disasters, war, hoarding by irresponsible parties, declining interest of young people in agriculture, and also increasingly narrow land. agriculture has turned into factories. or many other reasons.

But I am currently curious about what is happening in each country regarding the current food crisis. Has it gotten better, gotten worse or hasn't there been any change?

In the country where I work, the food crisis has really been resolved. everything is back to normal.Even though the food crisis is over but although food prices are still high and have not come back down. but the consumer's ability can still offset the increase that has occurred so that it can be said that in this country the food sector is under control and sufficient. and how about in your country?

Food crisis here in my country seems getting worst as some influencial business owners tend to hoard thousands of tons of rice and vegetables to manipulate prices. Some of these business owners were investigated and hopefully soon will be apprehended.

The declining interest of young people into agriculture is one of the most common reason why there is sometimes shortage in food in a particular country. Smuggled goods from foreign countries could also pose threat to the local food sector.

If the food crisis has something to do with the inflation of its price then all I can say is that the situation is worsening. With the agricultural land being converted to housing, industrial, and commercial land, the food supply is getting thinner. As a result, their price in the market is almost doubled. This problem is enhanced by these people who hoard the food supply even making the price skyrocket.

Apart from that, what the government and farmers need to do is good and productive agricultural management. Where I live there is still a lot of empty land and the land is very fertile but because it is not managed well and is not able to absorb technological advances to increase existing agricultural output. So food yields where I live do not increase every year, while the need for food has increased the most. And in my opinion, the government's participation in dealing with things like this is also very necessary because there are still many people in my area who, when they want to farm, only rely on rainwater, while when the dry season arrives they cannot plant crops because there is a lack of sufficient water supply to wet the agricultural land.

That's the reason why the farmers in your area don't want to plant crops because there is no proper water irrigation for the plants, and that is why those farmers won't take the risk unless the government builds a water irrigation system in that feasible area.

I am not sure where you live but in our country government built irrigation that was temporary and built by farmers before government just funded it to make it concrete so that it would be permanent and the flow of water would be distributed evenly.

Everything is very expensive and because of this higher cost one will be unable to eat well and there are lots of people who just take meal but their diet does not contain any healthy food.

You will have experienced that in past the price was not as higher as that is today which implies that health issues were not present in past people as much as that is now present in today's people may be the cause is unhealthy expensive food.

One reason is the war due to which the price become increasing because when war initiate then food producing countries ceases the exportation of food to the neighbor countries so the neighbors countries elevates the price of existing minimum resources of food.

Food crisis was only high when it’s still pandemic time, but after that the supply of foods has returned to normal. However, there are remarkable price increase as of these days. Everything that are considered as daily necessities have been incredibly high priced. At first, I thought the government can do something about it but as inflation continues, prices have been rising as well. Until these days, we are still stuck with food prices that I think unreasonable at all. And I don’t think the government can still control it, or lessen the price as it was before.

The current inflation is occurring globally. So every government in every country is currently having a really hard time controlling it. Uncontrolled inflation can actually become worse if it is not treated immediately. Because inflation has its own levels starting from normal inflation, high inflation and hyper inflation. So what we are worried about is hyper inflation. But I think we can avoid that. Except for several countries which have been in a state of hyper inflation for a long time. Some countries increase bank interest rates to reduce inflation. And in a moment it worked. But the impact turned out to trigger another problem, namely Recession. So the government then lowered interest rates and the funny thing is that after the interest rates were lowered, inflation actually rose again. The point is that the current government still seems confused about the current conditions. But as long as inflation can be kept under control, meaning it doesn't rise quickly, that's good enough. But the current price increase seems to indicate that inflation is starting to get out of control again.

Its a global problem but we know that there are countries which arent been affected or doesnt have this type of problem.
Lowest inflation?

1   🇸🇸 South Sudan   -11.6%
2   🇲🇴 Macau   0.8%
3   🇨🇳 China   1.8%
4   🇭🇰 Hong Kong SAR   1.8%
5   🇴🇲 Oman   2.1%
6   🇵🇦 Panama   2.1%
7   🇸🇨 Seychelles   2.5%
8   🇻🇺 Vanuatu   2.7%
9   🇹🇼 Taiwan   2.7%
10   🇨🇭 Switzerland   2.8%

According to reports from the government stated that inflation in my country continues to increase, in my country, of course, also feels inflation that is difficult to control, but the thing that makes me happy is that inflation can be a good opportunity to increase income, financial services are increasingly easily found even with official identity then we easy to get a loan

I think this high inflation rate is globally because my country is not left out of this lingering financial crisis, however the problems associated with inflation in my country is in sharp contrast with that of your country because the salaries of workers here wasn't increase here despite the increase in the prices of goods and services as a result of government removal of fuel subsidy thus there is low purchasing power of consumers of goods and services consequently a lot of workers adopted scale of preference to purchase goods or make a payment for any service, food is their major priority thereafter other things can be considered.

In facing a situation like this, nothing will change if we expect it from other people or the government, but it would be better for us to continue to develop the potential that exists within us so that we can survive the current conditions if we have a stable income. I think conditions like Anything will remain the same for us because we can still fulfill our needs and desires.

But fortunately there is abundant food here and perhaps a food crisis can be avoided in the long term. But I don't really know about Bangladesh. Is there an advanced agricultural sector there? Or is the agricultural condition there really bad?

I am also a Bangladeshi citizen. Yes, our country is an agricultural country, most of the people live by doing agricultural work. I also highlight something about the economy of our Bangladesh. Compared to the last few years, inflation in our country has increased a lot this year. And I did not talk about the price of any other items, generally the price of pens has increased from BDT 5 to BDT 6. Also this year our country has experienced excessive drought due to which farmers did not get good crop yield. Due to this, the price of food has increased in the market. Also, the government is charging higher taxes on various food items. Due to the increase in the price of goods, it has become very difficult to live the life of the daily laborers of our country.

But for food stocks, the staple food in this country is rice. It seems the price is still rising rapidly. Because it hasn't rained here yet. Even though in September it should usually start to rain. But this year is a little different. Maybe the rainy season will come a little late.

All agricultural schedules have undergone changes due to extreme climate changes and perhaps when September should have started with the rainy season it will change not just by 1 but could be more than 2 months, and that will be very troublesome for farmers and the community because many are still dependent on rainfall. because now they are starting to have difficulty getting clean water.

Regarding the food crisis, I think each country is different, some are starting to experience a decline in food stocks but there are also those that are still exporting freely. My country is planning to import food from other countries but it is reported that this is only for backup but I think it is only to calm the public or reduce speculators who will definitely take advantage by creating panic in the market so that prices will rise higher and cause problems for the public.
We have been hearing about the food crisis for a long time, but humans will always find a way to get out of this problem.

Sometimes when a food crisis occurs, there are always parties who deliberately cause food stocks on the market to decrease and become scarce, which triggers higher price increases. Maybe hoarding within normal limits is not a problem. But hoarding on a national scale is a bad thing. Some time ago or several months ago there was also a case like that in the country where I currently work. Namely, there were parties who hoarded cooking oil on a national scale which caused the price of cooking oil at that time to skyrocket very quickly at unreasonable prices. And this triggers price increases in other fields. especially in the food industry which uses cooking oil in its processing. But fortunately the party who did the wrong thing has been found out and has now been brought to justice. So prices return to normal because stock is again abundant in the market.

But for food stocks, the staple food in this country is rice. It seems the price is still rising rapidly. Because it hasn't rained here yet. Even though in September it should usually start to rain. But this year is a little different. Maybe the rainy season will come a little late.

Currently in my area there is a fairly long dry season so that some farmers cannot plant crops due to lack of water. And most farmers in my area only rely on rainwater to wet their agricultural land. And the only way to overcome this problem is by building infrastructure in the form of irrigation, so that people can farm all the time and not only during the rainy season. And in some areas irrigation construction is carried out with assistance from the government, but the infrastructure cannot last long because the quality is poor and I think that this is due to criminal acts of corruption in it so that the infrastructure that is built is of poor quality.
