(Worthy News) – The world only has 10 weeks worth of grain left, the lowest levels ever seen, as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is creating a “seismic” threat to global food supplies, Gro Intelligence CEO Sara Menker told the United Nations Security Council.

“[T]he Russia-Ukraine war did not start the food security crisis. It simply added fuel to a fire that was long burning. A crisis we detected tremors from long before the COVID 19 pandemic exposed the fragility of our supply chains,” Menker told the United Nations. Her software company, Gro Intelligence, uses human and artificial intelligence to predict food security and climate change.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky gave a similar warning on Saturday. His country accounts for nearly 10% of the world’s corn supply and together, Russia and Ukraine provide up to 30% of the global grain supply. [ Source: Just the News (Read More…) ]
