Fertilizer

There is a disaster looming on the horizon represented by the coming world food shortage. The proper use of fertilizers can double crop yield and the main three chemical fertilizers, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium are going to be in short supply because of the war in Ukraine. Russia is the top exported of fertilizer and their shipments depend on the Black Sea which is currently in a war zone. In addition Ukraine is a major exporter of food grains and those shipments are in jeopardy. The shortage will be most acute in sub Sarah Africa and news reports will start to show starvation in these countries. The food shortage will be followed by an energy shortage since oil exports from Russia will slow. If that goes on for even a few months Russian oil will back up and they will have to shut down wells in Siberia. When that happens the water will freeze and pipes will burst and it would take years to get that oil back on stream. This will create energy shortages throughout Asia. For these reasons Americans will continue to turn away from the war. Someone or ones must rise to the occasion and demand a peaceful settlement in Ukraine. Will that be the American people when they start seeing starvation Africa coupled will continued billions of dollars used to kill innocent people while blowing up their homes. Where are the anti war songters like Bob Dylan and Joan Baez when you need them.
