#India: COVID lockdowns mean farmers have no place to sell their crops:
''Production was good this year but with no market, we have to throw our produce away.," said Shabir Ahmad, a farmer.
Another Strawberry farmer said that even during last year's Covid lockdown, they managed to sell strawberries to locals but this year people are very scared to even venture out of their homes. This in turn has narrowed their scope of selling strawberries even to locals.
Sources said the farmers are completely on their own and have time and again approached the government for cold storage for strawberries as the fruit has a low shelf life.
"We request the government to at least make a cold storage or make a policy like they have for saffron or orchards or cherries. Last year, we had around 100 hectares of land utilised for strawberry farming but this year it was only 70-8," added Manzoor Ahmad, a strawberry Farmer.

Diesel shortage in Punjab impacting wheat harvest/sowing:
Diesel shortage may hit wheat harvesting and sowing of Kharif crops as farmers are queuing up at filling stations to get oil supplies in various areas of Punjab.
Reports particularly from south Punjab districts suggest that diesel is either not available or its supplies are short at filling stations. Farmers who have harvested wheat and are waiting for its threshing are worried that if diesel supplies are not stabilised, their crop may be damaged because of high winds and possible rains in the month of May.
Farmers from various regions blame panic buying for the shortage on the rumours that the oil prices may be increased from May 1. “Some of our colleagues are trying to hoard the oil in anticipation of an increase in its prices, putting stress on the supplies,” says Fayyaz from Chishtian.

BREAKING: India mulls export limits on wheat.
We went from “India will step in to cover the Ukraine wheat” to new export limits in about a month.
This is huge. With other major exporters already limiting, Black Sea not shipping, US having worst wheat since ‘89, China worst on record - this really signals the “protectionist” policies (ie keep our food domestic!) will now spread everywhere. And importers are in real trouble.

India Mulls Wheat Export Curbs in Latest Food Supply Squeeze
The country experienced its hottest March on record, shriveling India’s wheat crop during a crucial growth period.
India has now flip-flopped and announced they are NOT limiting exports.
I wonder what conversations are going on behind the scenes to motivate an announcement in order to protect domestic food prices, and then suddenly a retraction to continue exporting for now.

India Bans Wheat Exports in Growing Wave of Food Protectionism

World’s largest rice exporter restricts shipments
India has banned sending broken rice abroad and imposed a 20% duty on other varieties.
The South Asian nation cited food security concerns in making the move, which was announced on Thursday, as below-average monsoon rainfall had curtailed planting. India exports rice to more than 150 countries.
IceAgeFarmer note: this is the “food nationalism” that was described by Podesta’s Food Chain Reaction Game leading to massive geopolitical instability and hunger

Another mass kill of livestock: 57,000 cows perish in India - milk shortages and "hundreds of carcasses of dead cows have been found lying in the open, causing a nauseating stench, with crows and vultures feeding on them."
