So, there is about to be a huge problem with global food production. The Strait of Hormuz carries one-third of globally traded fertilizer.

Key fertilizer producers in the region have halted operations due to safety concerns and damage from drone strikes. #Iran has stopped production. With no strategic reserve for nitrogen fertilizer (unlike oil), the global market lacks buffers to absorb such a shock. This has led to a sharp spike in prices and a partial pause in fertilizer bidding across the U.S. and other major farming regions.

Farmers, including the U.S., Brazil, and India, are facing uncertainty over whether they can secure enough fertilizer for the spring planting season. Analysts warn this could trigger a "fertiliser shock" that ripples through global food supply chains, increasing prices for staples like bread, pasta, and meat. The crisis is also affecting vegetable oils and sugar refining.

Get your gardens going folks. There’s not much time.

Wonder if El Trumpo will attempt to pay off these guys, as he paid off the soybean farmers here in the states.

I can't believe El Trumpo got away with that, and everyone just sittin' around with one thumb in their mouths and the other thump shoved up their asses....

@tuban_muzuru I dunno who he’d pay off. Us and the Israelis are who have bombed ships in the Hormuz. We bombed an unarmed ship and let 90 people die rather than follow the law and rescue them, and Israel just bombed an oil tanker because it moved.

We are the clear and present danger here. We bombed the factories that make nitrogen. Without nitrogen, crop production will halve. Starving people cease to care about niceties. A global food crisis would be a disaster that could kill hundreds of millions of people.

El Trumpo will exceed even Napoleon, but for sheer crassness, he is our National Exemplar of Bad Taste. World Champeen.

To where goes this Kaiju ? I want out of this movie.

@tuban_muzuru If his gold spray painted white house isn't the absolute epitome of what America has become, I don't know what is.

I swear to Bob, one of the things that drives me mad about our current crop of #EpsteinClass #GildedAge asshats is that none of them do Obscene Wealth well.

If I were a heartless, soulless billionaire, I would have an airship. A fleet of dirigibles. I would fund a resurgence of steam punk aesthetic. I would have that spider mount from that terrible will smith movie. I would carry a walking stick, and use it liberally to make my point. I'm just saying, if I had "fuck you" money, I'd be having a lot more fun than these guys are.

If I were a billionaire with a soul...I wouldn't be a billionaire, because that's just immoral.
