How can conflict in Ukraine impact food security? Those countries are the main exporters of wheat and corn. Mainly they are exporting to countries in Africa and the Middle East. Russia is also the biggest exporter of fertilizers. Are you interested in how this situation will affect countries dependent on imported wheat?
