Countries have begun stockpiling food in response to the second wave of the coronavirus
Countries have begun to stockpile food, fearing a second wave of the coronavirus could hurt global trade.
According to Qadin.Net, this was reported by Bloomberg.
It is said that the pandemic disrupts the supply chain "from farms to enterprises."
This has previously resulted in empty shelves in world stores. Therefore, consumers have decided to save, taking into account the possibility of future supply disruptions.
Thus, Jordan has accumulated record wheat reserves. Egypt has increased its purchases by more than 50 percent since April. Taiwan and China have increased their strategic food reserves.
According to the agency, due to consumer demand and the drought in the Black Sea region, there has been an increase in prices for products from corn to sugar.
