  1. There are solutions. But, I feel like the EU is neglecting those solutions.

  2.  @Kretek  Grain, or any agricultural product, that is treated by pesticides isn't "lower quality". Regardless of the economic ramifications, you are only biasedly talking about Ukrainian grain w/o the facts.

  3. I kinda feel like the EU Commission should have had a better handle on this issue before the lid blew. It seems like such an obvious cause-and-effect for orthodox economists.

  4. I would be interested in that. Curious about sunflower seeds, too.

  5. This is why Putin's food blackmail is impacting North Africa, the Middle East, & the "Global South" as badly as the Ukrainian economy.

  6. ​ @Kretek  Like I said, you keep throwing around false facts w/ even any sources. 1. "Technical grain" is what is meant to be used as fuel since so much consumer produce is also flood into the European market. So, "technical grain" is in addition to the grain exports already meant for human consumption. 2. (Regardless of your subjective sense of quality) The economic ramification of cheap Ukrainian exports outcompeting and destabilizing market rates of EU products is real. But your tone is coming off as "be grateful for what we already did" and "it's cheap quality anyway." 3. Above all, I think the EU Commission knew this was an issue and didn't act accordingly. This pushed Poland and many other states to their current actions. Western European states need to share the burden or EU Commission needs to introduce a better solution.

  7. While I agree with you,... you're talking from a mighty high horse, there.
