International Pest Control – May/June 2022 – Vol 64, Nr.3
The Governor of the Bank of England is concerned about the level of food price inflation that has been a consequence of the war in the Ukraine. And while food price rises in Europe and the USA may be “apocalyptic” the area of greatest concern is surely the cost of staple foods in the less […]

Even if you live far from the war in Europe the implications for the cost of basic foods and products needed by agriculture will reach you.
