Chokepoint in the Gulf: What the US-Israeli war on Iran means for Southeast Asia’s food security
The effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz could push Aseans farmers and food prices to the brink, but the region has options to ease some of the pressure.
The Middle East conflict is set to have a double-whammy impact on both Asean’s import of fertilisers, and its energy-intensive fertiliser production. The timing is critical as in the coming months, the five major crops, including rice, are being planted in Asean.
Around a third of globally traded urea passes through the Strait of Hormuz and importing countries are less self-sufficient than they appear.
Law and policy measures that prioritise sustainable agriculture are needed to address India’s environmental challenges.
