The UK government tried to bury its own 2024 report warning of food & water system failure as early as 2030. This is now starting to look a bit optimistic.

Strange how the farming focused article switches to public health during heat waves in the final 3 paragraphs. Also, weird that NFU Pres says “It does feel like there is going be some shortages of [food] products.” I mean "feels"?? Surely there is actual math on stockpiles and yields UK + global.

and this happening at the same time as droughts in France, Spain, Germany, production collapse in Russia, Hormuz blockade and record el Niño. This doesn't look good...

All of this is serious, but I can’t see any mention of Defra suppressing a report on food security. What’s the context?

The defra report was seemingly suppressed by number 10.
