Closure of the Strait of Hormuz Could Raise Global Food Prices Through Fertilizer Shortages The closure of the Strait of Hormuz amid the war with Iran has triggered a global energy and supply crisis that now threatens the world’s food system. Around one-third of all internationally traded fertilizer passes through this strategic waterway, meaning disruptions have sharply raised fertilizer costs and constrained global supply. Farmers are feeling the pressure, as modern agriculture depends on timely and adequate fertilizer applications. When fertilizer becomes too expensive or delayed, farmers must reduce usage, plant fewer crops, or shift to less demanding varieties—all of which reduce productivity. The most affected crops are corn, wheat, and rice, which provide over half of global calories. Prices of nitrogen-, phosphate-, and potassium-based fertilizers have soared, worsened by natural gas shortages, Russian export suspensions, and Chinese export bans. These higher costs will eventually trickle down to consumers through pricier livestock feed, beef, poultry, and processed foods such as corn syrup sweeteners. While U.S. consumers aren’t yet facing shortages, they can expect to see rising food and fuel prices within months, with ripple effects lasting long after the conflict. Globally, the fertilizer shortage threatens yields in countries like India, Brazil, and across Africa, where affordability was already an issue. The U.N. World Food Program warns that up to 45 million additional people could face hunger by the end of 2026 if the conflict persists.

Grocery store price‑gouging talk has gotten WAY too quiet.

Highest prices are ALWAYS in black/brown communities and the stores are NOT owned by us. And we can't just walk 5 miles across the city either.
