Food Ingredients First reports on how building upon research that supports plant-based diets and how they can dramatically reduce environmental impacts, may also help improve resilience in terms of these nations’ capacity to recover from food insecurity driven by the Russia-Ukraine conflict. This past year has been turbulent in terms of food supply and food security. Due to conflict-driven food shocks (the war), many countries chose to keep their crops for their people. According to IFPRI, in May 2022, it estimated that over 20 countries have implemented food export bans as a response to the shortfall in agricultural goods. These bans have been driven in regions already facing other substantial pressures, such as Southeast Asia and India.
