Food Prices could Rise More
Cynthia Daley with the Center for Regenerative Agriculture and Resilient Systems at the Chico State Farm
says we haven't felt the price crunch yet because the crops are still
in the ground. But, she says the closing of the Straight of Hormuz
is affecting agriculutural inputs like fertilizer which could see 40
percent price increases...
Daley tsaysthat the Straight of Hormuz
handles about one-third of the world's fertilizer supply.
She says when that route is disrupted it tightens global
supply. She says this tightening comes as farmers ready
for the spring planting season
