In recent years, food security has become a more prominent issue for consumers and governments, alongside energy security. Beyond supply chain disruptions and more extreme weather, the war in Ukraine has increased the strains. Food security concerns not just food growing, production and processing, but access to safe and nutritional food.
In this Talking heads podcast, Portfolio Manager Agne Rackauskaite and Chief Market Strategist Daniel Morris discuss responses to the food security question. They include a rise in food protectionism in the form of export restrictions, near-shoring and re-shoring, government investment in agri-tech and the need for incentives to reduce supply chain losses and food waste.
