UN Food Official Warns Fertilizer Affordability Crisis Could Slash Global Grain Production By 40%

That's the view of Maximo Torero, chief economist from the Food & Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations (UN), who told Bloomberg TV that elevated fertilizer prices could decrease global grain production by upwards of 40% in the next planting season.
