Market expert says Ukraine war means more demand for U.S. crops

A market specialist says the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine means the market will be watching U.S. crop production very closely.  Mike North is with ever.ag. He says, “The fact that Ukraine might not be planting a crop this spring because they’re at war, it really puts a lot of premium into our market because as a general rule we’re going to have to displace their lack of supply to the world market.”

North says people around the world still want to eat and they will be looking for a source for products they normally get from Ukraine, and it might last longer than a year.
