How the Ukraine War Just Changed Your Grocery Bill
About this Episode
The ongoing conflict in Ukraine is having an unsettling ripple effect on grocery prices around the globe. As we explore how this war has shifted food supply chains and our wallets, let’s dive into the details that matter.
First off, Ukraine has long been called the breadbasket of Europe. It’s one of the largest exporters of grains, particularly wheat and corn. But with the war raging, those important grain exports have come to a grinding halt. Picture this: before the invasion, the price of grains was around $270 per ton. Fast forward to today, and in some regions, that price has soared to nearly $500 per ton. That’s a staggering increase that can’t help but make its way to our grocery bills.
