A worthwhile resource on the topic, Ohio State Ag Economists discuss (important to US ag industries for obvious reasons)… https://ocj.com/2022/03/ukraine-russia-and-crop-production/ https://ocj.com/2022/03/ukraine-russia-and-crop-production/ Agricultural economists as a discipline deal with these and other policy/trade issues all the time. At agricultural colleges and universities, they provide farmers with insights so the right crops are grown in the right time and place at the right level. No political or financial agenda worthy of note. If you’re in the US and care enough, you might want to contact your local land grant school and talk to an ag economist who specializes in grain production about these concerns, or sponsor an on-line forum with them for others who are interested. If I remember correctly, most wheat in Ukraine/Russia is/has been planted in the fall/winter for summer harvest. But active regional conflict right next to your breadbasket generally sounds like a dumb and dangerous idea to pursue. You can’t harvest if your harvesting equipment is disabled. You can’t get the grain to market if your transportation systems are disrupted. Seems silly. Slavs may need to gen up some culturally appropriate recipes using maize and soybeans.
