The World Trade Organization warns that the food crisis resulting from the war in Ukraine could last for years, particularly impacting African countries due to a shortage of wheat and fertilizers. The conflict has halted millions of tons of grain from being exported, increasing global prices for wheat, sunflower oil, and corn. Ukraine, a major exporter of these commodities, has only managed to export two million tonnes of grain. The war has already led to a 30% increase in sunflower oil prices and a 23% rise in corn prices, with wheat prices surging by 59% from the previous year. The conflict threatens to lead to tens of millions being at risk of starvation.
