Fertilizer, food, and fuel prices were already high before the war and now they're skyrocketing.

Russia and Ukraine combined produce 30% of the world's wheat. Russia is the world's largest wheat exporter and Ukraine is probably 3rd or 4th. Russia is restricting food exports due to the war and its own needs and Ukrainian shipments have stopped altogether. Russia and Ukraine together feed the entire middle east essentially. That's why the middle-eastern nations have been so reluctant to go against Russia.

Russia is also the world's largest producer of fertilizer, accounting for nearly 13% of the world's total. It also accounts for a of global fertilizer exports. Russia has restricted fertilizer exports.

Brazil, France, and the US are all major food exporters and are heavily dependent on fertilizer imports. With a big bite of the export supply gone, there's going to be a huge crunch and a collapse of food production.

Spain is dependent on imports and it imports a lot of fertilizer. Europe is so far self-sufficient in food but its production is heavily dependent on fertilizer and oil imports from Russia.

http://www.politico.eu/article/eu-commission-warns-of-major-food-and-farming-impact-of-russia-ukraine-war/

70% of livestock feed comes from Russia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia_in_the_European_energy_sector#:~:text=According%20to%20Eurostat%2C%2030%25%20of,petroleum%20oils%20originated%20in%20Russia.

30% of EU oil and 39% of gas imports come from Russia. A Russian oil and gas embargo could crater their economies overnight. Contrary to liberal imbeciles, oil and gas are used for much more than vehicles.

Harvesters and tractors depend on oil. Urea fertilizer depends on gas. 50% of oil is used for petrochemicals. Without oil, you would have no polymers and very little medicine. Plus, the whole supply chain depends on oil-run heavy trucks and ships.

However, let's put aside the oil embargo for a moment. Even without it, oil prices are at a record high. Brent crude is selling at 118$ per barrel and experts warn that oil could hit 150$-200$ if the US puts a ban on Russian oil and gas imports.

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/energy/oil-gas/global-oil-price-jumps-to-nearly-112-natural-gas-prices-reach-record-highs/videoshow/89986622.cms

The skyrocketing price of oil and gas alone will drive food prices to the roof and cripple not only European production but also American production as it becomes too expensive for farmers to stay in the agribusiness.

So, all in all, you really have a perfect storm in the making. If rising fertilizer and fuel costs coupled with food crunch wasn't enough, now you have various food-exporting countries enacting export bans.

https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/small-biz/trade/exports/insights/food-protectionism-is-spreading-as-hungary-bans-grain-exports/articleshow/90009329.cms

Hungary banned all grain exports. Moldavia and Bulgaria are tightening restrictions on exports as well. Naturally, they want to feed their own first. These countries are all huge food exporters.

https://asia.nikkei.com/Spotlight/Datawatch/China-hoards-over-half-the-world-s-grain-pushing-up-global-prices

China meanwhile has hoarded half the world's wheat and driven prices to the sky.

The perfect storm is in the making. If there ever was a civilizational collapse moment in the cards, this is it. If there is a global famine, there will be coups, civil wars, and societal collapse in large parts of the third world. In Europe and America, the imported diversity is going to chimp out and cause mayhem as well.

The end of the liberal world order might be here. An age of protectionism, authoritarian governments, and nationalism might be on the horizon. Globalism can only thrive in an environment of free trade and rising prosperity. Not in one of mass starvation and export bans.

By the way, who feeds black Africa? Is it also Russia and Ukraine? And it looks like my prediction about Egypt - which I made years ago now - is going to come to pass. If Egypt collapses there will be a migrant crisis Europe has never seen, and it will accelerate everything enormously. The entire liberal regime in the EU could fall in a matter of days.

Poland in 2022 - "No black people shall cross our border!"

Don't be so sure. The elite and millions of brainwashed masses are still traitors to the European cause. The issue isn't just the elite but the brainwashed masses who believe all the globohomo propaganda about how "no human is illegal". That are cut off from reality and really believe you can replace the European population without destroying Europe.

In a parallel universe

White Europeans leave christianity and become muslim. Europe is a white muslim continent now

Muslims outside Europe (arabs and third world who wanted to conquer Europe) - "Inshallah"

White Islamic Europe - "No non-whites in our ethno-continent"

Muslims outside Europe - confused screeching

I wish I was born in the 50s or 60s. Enjoy the White world at its peak with security before it all falls apart.

Oh you will. Not quite the level of 60s but definitely better than what we have today. Unfortunately if the prediction comes true, we'll have to suffer till then. At this point if this is what it takes, then so be it.

Yea that would be nice but it is also fun to live world changing times.

Well I have 100 pounds of wheat ready to mill, my home is 100% solar and just last month I ordered emergency food supply like rice, beans, canned eggs and potatoes and such.

I knew the conflict was going to happen so I prepared.

[–]send_nasty_stuffNational Socialist 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

Awesome. I'm not quite there but getting close.

[–]Brewdabier 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

All you can do is stock up, I also reload my own ammo so I hope I'm ready for anything.

[–]send_nasty_stuffNational Socialist 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

I don't reload yet but I've set up some agreements with neighbors where I help out cleaning brass and save brass and other reloading supplies and they allow me to reload using their equipment. It has made me a lot closer with my neighbors because we are working towards a shared goal. I've also got so much ammo stockpiled that I will only need to reload if I do a lot more target shooting. I don't shoot for fun as much as I use to due to ammo prices. Even reloading is getting pricey.

[–]casparvoneverecBig tiddy respecter[S] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Do u use assault rifles or carbines?

[–]send_nasty_stuffNational Socialist 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Assault rifles

This is a media created term. If an 'assault rifle' is a fully automatic weapon nobody in the US has been able to own an 'assault rifle' since 1986 (excluding grandfathered weapons and special permits). I don't own any 'assault rifles' by that definition. Most of my weapons are hand me downs from my father and grandfather. I have a few newer rifles and handguns. I built my own AR** and my everyday carry is a sig 320. All of my weapons are of course legally owned and purchased/transported legally through a registered FFL. All my rifles are semi auto fire. I don't own any short barrel AR pistols either. I live in a state with very good gun laws so I know for certain my weapons are legally owned.

** A rmaLite R ifle clone

carbine

That word is losing a lot of meaning because it just means short version of a long barreled rifle (which meant something when the military has muskets and high caliber battle rifles). Carbine can mean a less powerful cartridge but not always. Most rifles sold today can be considered a carbine and even the US military issues more carbines then long barreled high caliber rifles. Carbine was a more popular term as the military transitioned from the musket to the garand to the M16; that was basically a transition from a rifle to a carbine. The US military of course still has high caliber long barrel rifles but they are no longer standard issue to the average rifleman.

You can see on this site as you look at old conflicts up to the 'war on terror' era there's a steady shrinking of barrel length and caliber. (older wars on the bottom)

https://www.battleorder.org/usa-squad-graphics

Most of my rifles are a medium barrel length and medium caliber. Of course I also own shotguns (home defense and bird hunting).

To return to your question maybe you are asking if I own 'SBR's' (Short Barrel rifles) or maybe you're asking about PDW or Braced Pistol? I don't own any of those.

You're also asking if I 'use' my rifles? Why would I own a rifle and not use it?

I got into reloading back in the early 80s, back then you could buy 20 pound cans of powder, we would go out every weekend and take 2000 + rounds e for target shooting. Now a pound is like $20 so I also don't go out as much, I always watch for sales and I know one of the sales dudes and give him nice gifts for Christmas so he let's me know when something is on sale.

Since the middle east will be hit hard I wonder if it will cause another refugee crisis. Will Europe have the will to reject them or will the traitors in power and their bugman and feminist supporters keep the borders open.

I have been referring to this decade as the "roaring 20's". It is going to be a time upheaval and geopolitical reordering. I hope all of this causes this world order to finally collapse.

I would've made so much money if I got cme wheat futures but I didn't feel like reopening that account. I really should've done commodity trading instead of /ES lol

Not necessarily. The wealthy elites will take advantage. Starving whites may be forced to sell their soul to Bill Gates for a loaf of bread.

Yup. I've been prepping for about a year now. Ice Age Farmer (youtuber) also has some good videos out recently about this.

Remember all that food we sent to feed children in Africa? Well those children are now all grown up now and able to pick up a rifle.
