Global food prices have risen sharply after the COVID19 pandemic and Ukraine conflict. Food shortages have also exacerbated due to crop failures arising from extreme weather events. More shortages have arisen due to restrictions on cross-country movements of food. In this episode, we join Dr Amitendu Palit, Senior Research Fellow and Research Lead (Trade & Economics) at ISAS-NUS and Dr Bornali Bhandari, Senior Fellow, NCAER, as they discuss and analyse policies for tackling food inflation, the challenges arising for affordable food distribution through public distribution systems, consequences of extreme weather events on food supplies and the role of technological solutions in addressing the food supply issues.
