Topic: What crisis what food crisis ? - page 4. (Read 688 times)
A food shortage doesn't automatically mean that a certain food will be unavailable. Most of the time (unless it gets far worse), it just means higher food prices — making certain food inaccessible to a lot of people in the lower end of the financial spectrum.
In most countries there isn't a food crisis but there is an inflation crisis and food is extremely expensive. Many items I used to buy were usually $2.50-$2.99. These days most of these items are $3.99-$4.50. And it adds up when you do a weekly shopping list. Certain types of fruits are so expensive that I just don't buy them anymore. Milk and everything is very expensive.
Sure there are no shortages but its expensive to buy food. So this has an affect on everything. People need to eat. And they cut down on everything else. So other businesses will suffer and its a feedback type of loop. Eventually we might get hit with layoffs and mass unemployment and it won't be pretty.

(...)Wherr is the crisis and where is the food shortages??
Im full of food i dont see any food shortages also i dont see any supply chain distruptions...i go to all shops and i get everything fine.
You refuse to accept the fact that it exists by bragging about your own enjoyment Im full of food i dont see any food shortages also i dont see any supply chain distruptions...i go to all shops and i get everything fine.
Or, more realistically, when you have enough money to spend, but don't think you're living a kingly life if you're still interested in the minor issue you're attempting to solve. If you are benevolent enough, visit some African countries and do charity work there. Go there and see. Don't just sit in a little well full of food without knowing what is happening outside. For me, food is very necessary and it makes me sadder when today the situation of poverty is wider. Of course, it does not affect me, but seeing someone without food is really not. This is a comfort. There's a lot to be said for this. When you're rich, learn to share more than brag about the little things that you think you're big on.
I also heard the news about the food crisis but it doesn't look like the crisis exists. Probably in some other countries like Sri Lanka. The country banned the use of fertilizer for thier crop so the farmers also stop planting.
Maybe the crisis is still coming months to a year later as I heard farmers protesting though from the Netherlands to Italy farmers are doing the same. The farmers in the US are also displeased when Bill Gates is buying up all of their lands.
Dude, wdym
Everything is up by at least 10%. Which is huge!! Even wheat's price is soaring which is very rare. Prices will continue to rise till 2023, there seems to be no end to it. And yet you are posing stupid questions
A 10% increase in the cost of food is probably not much for those that are middle class, but for those that are poor it is a tragedy, and this is because they will have to either reduce the amount of food that they buy or they will have to decrease their expenditures elsewhere so they can afford the higher costs of food, in any case this is going to strain their budgets and if the price of food keeps increasing then most likely we are going to find ourselves facing a social crisis very soon. Everything is up by at least 10%. Which is huge!! Even wheat's price is soaring which is very rare. Prices will continue to rise till 2023, there seems to be no end to it.

You may not yet be experiencing it, but it doesn't make it any less a reality to some others in other location and the fact that you are not experiencing it doesn't mean it hasn't started and won't get to you. When people complain about food crisis, you should get worried because it is a ripple effect and if people are experiencing shortages and your location has supply still, it means your supply will soon be under pressure and it is under the danger of shortage.

You are right about one thing tho, where's the bear market
But guess what, this is a sure sign of how bad things are going to be. Speculative investors keep on pumping the market and are generating this huge bubble. The current p/e ration doesn't justify the price of so many stocks but people continues to buy in hopes of making lost money back. We still got debts, inflation will keep on rising and soon it will all break. I truly hope it doesn't but all the indicators point southwards.

The crisis are not nowhere id like to see some real crisis but there is nothing everything is just fine
Want to see the real crisis for what? If you want to experience it then go to a place where inflation is high and go to a place where there's no development. Most probably we will not see the real situation in the supply chain, but as we can see the price is rising rapidly and that is the effect of many situation around the world. The shipment of many goods becomes slower and that is why some commodities rise in price. If there's another war that can affect the supply chain in the world, we can expect for the crisis to get worst. Have you heard the news about the situation in Sri Lanka? That's a big crisis.
I don't know what your country of residance is but since the inflation numbers are hitting record high in the us, this means that food and items prices are really increasing. Although this doesn't suggest that an appocalypse is upon us, but prices are indeed increasing and it will likely be like that for a while.
