22 Feb 2023 --- The UK’s National Farmers Union (NFU) has alerted the British government that food supplies are under threat of “disaster,” with lax border controls, avian disease risks, mounting energy costs, post-Brexit volatility and labor shortages mounting on the industry. A variety of F&B products, mainly vegetables, may need rationing in the near future if current trends continue. The union has called on policymakers to ramp up local production and prioritize environmental protection, which has already created food shortages throughout the country due to weather conditions in Europe and Africa.
