Also, a lot of farmers right now are quitting because of very expensive fertilizer, from which they can't get enough profit.

This is what is happening in my village. The area I live in is a village with a tradition of farming, but in recent years, due to the harsh weather, the crops have failed. Fertilizer prices skyrocketed, making us no profit or even loss, so many people had to quit their jobs and move to the city to find work. I have a feeling that the government is hardly interested in farmers' life, they always propagate in the mass media that they will support to promote the development of the agricultural industry, but we have not received the support yet over the years.
If this situation is not remedied, I believe that food prices will continue to rise higher in the future, when the government only focuses on industry and ignores agriculture.

Farmers don't expect income from agriculture because they don't get the appropriate profit during harvest, the government should make a policy to stop the import and export of local food ingredients to make local food prices stable, but they don't care about the farmers' business and it seems there are people who benefit from importers foodstuffs from abroad
The beneficiary is certainly there in this case. Because if neither party has a clear advantage, no party will do this and basically the farmers also expect a better income from their agricultural produce besides expecting their food needs from the crop. I think now is the time for the farmers themselves to change the way they grow crops so that they no longer experience the same thing by being hindered by cheap prices from competition for imported food.

The trick is to grow food that is slightly different from what they normally grow, although that doesn't mean they have to change everything for that, because the food that they usually consume themselves must also continue to be grown so they don't have to buy food elsewhere to eat. So the other foodstuffs that they grow can be sold at a slightly higher price if there are a lot of demanders and there is no price competition from food from abroad. Whereas what they usually plant can be used for daily consumption so spending money for their own life can be more efficient.

The cheap price of local food is not only due to the influence of foreign food that enters the country through another meaning, namely receiving imported food. But because there are some local citizens who like and trust food from abroad, this has caused the price of domestic food to be cheap due to a decrease in the number of enthusiasts to buy local food.

In fact, this is very easy to overcome by the government if it really wants to be resolved, thus enabling domestic farmers to continuously open up new land and utilize old, vacant land for farming according to what is needed by most people in the country. But sadly the farmers cannot do that because they remember the low prices that often befall them when the harvest arrives.

In our country, the government will import goods if there is a shortage because they can't control the price when there is a shortage. What the government should focus on is supporting the farmers about the fertilizer and the roads so that they can easily deliver their harvest to the market, as their harvest will be rotten before arriving at the market due to road conditions.

Food shortages have being a big problems in the global world today where tremedious things are happening people finds it difficult to buy food especially,rice products,climate change has devastated  the whole global world where crops can no longer do well in the farming system,believe with this new information about the crypto space can  our climate change system be put together where there will be high rate of food shortages in the global world as a new beginner I want to know we can fix this things I mentioned.
And this is where importation would kick or sets in and if a certain country couldnt be able to produce for example on having that rice which we do know that it is really something needed for day to day meals on most countries then the government wouldnt really be having no choice but to accept out importation into those countries who do supply the most or having that abundant supply. The thing you should really be minding on is on how you would really be that able to sustain which means that you would really be just needing that funds or money that had been saved or been earning so that you could buy whenever or whatever you do want because it would be still useless if you dont have that money even theres an abundant supply it would really be just still on the same situations or scenario.

We can change vacant land for productivity to plant rice and other crops to meet food needs, but due to laziness and unwillingness to use existing land for the agricultural sector and food needs are not fulfilled. In addition, farmers who make ends meet from food income also do not get support from the government, they always experience losses from cheap local food prices because the government accepts exports of food ingredients from other countries and does not prioritize local material prices to support the welfare of local farmers.

If the problem of rice is a problem of food shortages, then you can see in some countries that try to plant rice using small land. The source of problems like this is because humans are too lazy and rely too much on things that are easier to use. Although the land owned is usually more productive and can be used to plant some basic needs to support food problems.

Best solution:
1. Start loving the agricultural sector
2. Planting food for your own needs
3. Take advantage of small land to be more productive, by planting some food needs on a family scale.

I do not understand the relationship of cryptocurrency with the climate change you mean, can you explain in detail and what type of links you mean. Climate change and the relationship of food sources may have an interconnected level of influence, but if the relationship with cryptocurrency is completely irrelevant, although maybe what you mean is Bitcoin mining.

Sri Lanka had food shortages due to a collapse in the economy and currency value.  They gave 1 day off to all government employees to grow their own food, this was often done in wars by nations unable to trade properly and with the obvious loss of working age men/women it was a requirement.
  The other factor is fertilizer usage, techniques and general technology advancement such as machines help make farms more productive.    Crypto wouldnt be part of that exactly but anything which improves the flow of currency and investment locally not just to western based economies biased; this is probably a good thing for the world and its productive capacity.

Those who want to survive food shortages will always find ways to find or make food. Lazy and unproductive people will surely die o hunger. We can produce crops and vegetables through planting. There are some areas that are impossible to plant but there are also other alternatives to it. We only have to be strategic because we can't rely on the government alone during the famine as what most of us have experienced during the pandemic crisis. Productivity and creativity will always be the answer.

Surviving is a human nature, like how you describe things even in the place where planting is not really being practice but due to food shortages people create designs to let the plants grows, it's all in the mindset that you wanted to survive and continue your life, those who died due to starving are really helpless and they accept their fate without anything that they can do.

We can't really control everything, but we can find ways. As long as we are still alive, we need to continue surviving from day to day.

The challenge behind the shortage in my own region, which has affected the price of food, is that most farmers are now leaving the farming industry. It requires significant startup capital, and the problem of insecurity is contributing where farmers being attacked so many are even afraid to go to the farm. And if our government can intervene and If more people or even individuals can start up a farm, even a small one can help when it comes to shortage and it being expensive.
There are many things that can cause food shortage which we need to take a look at because this will help to solve problems related to it or that can trigger it for a long time.

-Over population
-Natural disaster
-War: Russia/Ukraine war leading to shortage of wheat production, gas, etc.
-Industrialization
-Polution

These are the few I can list that can cause food shortage, we need to look into these cause so we can plan on how to avert there existence to ensure continue food supply to different region of the world.

I will endure because I am ready. If you're not prepared for a food shortage and also don't really care about what's really going on, it's better to do it sooner rather than later. Hunt, raise livestock and vegetables or stockpile MRE. And it's a good plan that involves a combination of all three.
don't worry too much about the situation that is happening because there is already a government that will regulate and do it, and all you have to think about is yourself and you have to think smart and also be independent. And you also have to have another or side job and have to work if you don't work, because by having additional income you won't be short of food and use it wisely, especially in buying food for your provisions. Because you can't do anything if that's the problem due to global factors or other factors, and what's needed is that you have to be smart and also independent to solve it.

Current climate change is very influential on agricultural products, even in most areas experiencing crop failure. This resulted in a food crisis in various countries. The weather is currently not good, some areas are experiencing flooding which causes crop failure, others are experiencing drought which also has an effect on crop failure. Of course the government will rely on imported products whose prices are of course much higher than local products. But we cannot avoid it, we will automatically incur high costs for staples. But we don't understand the relationship between climate and crypto. But the current existence of crypto can help with high spending costs. Regardless of how one makes money from it.

It's a thing that many people in richer countries have never had to experience so far and Covid showed that big unexpected shocks to the supply chain can cause many unexpected reactions. Panic buying was very prominent and might possibly be the most dangerous things early on a disaster. There are vast reserves hidden away in warehouses, but if the logistics break down or people buy too much it can turn into a vicious downwards spiral that is harder to exit. How to survive it yourself? Have plenty of tinned and non perishable goods stored up, along with a supply of vitamins and ideally try to grow some of your own vegetables in any garden space - if for no other reason than to learn a few techniques.

I think A global food shortage is an unlikely risk.  My country has not yet fallen into a food shortage but is only affected by rising inflation and price fluctuations due to increased fuel and production costs.  Do you think a bag of fertilizer can easily triple during covid19?  Lol, some greedy millet took advantage of the difficult situation to hoard and push up the price and sell them to get rich, supply - demand imbalance as well as import increase - export decrease.  I think each country has to base on the country's situation to make appropriate actions and plans.  For example, a country with advantages in agricultural production and export will continue to develop, build a transportation system that easily transports food goods, connect production and consumption areas, etc.  medium and long-term credit to stimulate investment expansion in agriculture/agriculture….  For countries that do not have an advantage in food production, etc., it is possible to reduce the urbanization rate of the plains
inflation is a problem. But this does not mean the food will be short
One need to work hard to earn to cope up with the inflation.

Start being self-sufficient and start growing greens in your backyard. If you have a small space that you can set up pots and soils on, you can probably start growing your own food and pick up things from there when you need it. In these dire scenarios, you wouldn't really expect anyone to help you as they're already busy helping themselves secure food. If the system already feeds a lot of mouths in a rather scarce resource, it helps that you alleviate that burden by having something growing on your own yard. May not be the best approach out there and obviously won't work to everyone, but if you have the means then just do it.

I don't understand what it does something to do with climate change and crypto. But let's tackle the food shortages, when the war with Ukraine and Russia has started, this is where it all started for the ingredients like wheat has come into shortage.
And it has impacted other food products that requires wheat and in result, the prices have increased a lot and then affected most food products that has it as a main ingredient for it to be made. But this problem is actually happening in some other nations already where people are starving to death and it's not just being spoken through the mainstream media because they're bias on it.
