The Ukrainian-Russian conflict raises serious food security issues and risks, Minister of Agriculture Nagy István told Hungarian journalists in Brussels on Monday after a meeting of EU agriculture and fisheries ministers.

War also threatens food security

The minister also said Ukrainian Minister of Agriculture Roman Leschenko, via a video link to the council, who confirmed that Ukrainian farmers were unable to carry out their duties because of the war. As he said, the situation is further exacerbated by the fact that the livestock sectors have been struggling for months across Europe for months due to input costs – a drastic rise in the price of energy, feed or fertilizer.
