The resulting ripple effects are threatening the supply of key food

resources like wheat and raising the possibility of a global famine since
Russia and Ukraine account for about 30% of the worlds grain exports.
Simultaneously, disruption to the flow of electronics, raw materials,
and parts supplies emanating out of China and other locales has
seriously impeded global trade positions.
As a result of its war, estimates of a 30-year economic setback are
projected for Russia.
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) had pointed out earlier that
both Russia and Ukraine are major commodity producers, and
disruptions there have resulted in soaring global prices, especially that
of oil and natural gas.

Russia’s aggression against Ukraine is mainly affecting the production and export capacity of
Ukraine. The current war is raising concerns over whether crops will be harvested. Moreover, the
war has led to the closures of ports and oilseed crushing operations, affecting exports.
Prior to Russia’s aggression, over 90% of Ukraine crop exports were channelled through ports at
the Azov and Black Seas. These ports are currently inaccessible due to the ongoing war or
Russian occupation.
In addition, some storage and processing facilities have been damaged, further delaying and
constraining agricultural exports from Ukraine.
Indirect losses to Ukrainian agriculture due to production decrease, higher production costs,
logistics disruption and lower prices for export-oriented commodities have been estimated at USD
23.3 billion as of June 2022

Price volatility, supply shortages, security issues and economic
uncertainty have contributed to what the International Energy
energy crisis Agency (IEA) is calling “the first truly global energy crisis, with
impacts that will be felt for years to come”.
As ever, poorer countries — many still recovering from the effects of
the global pandemic — will bear the brunt of the negative
consequences of the energy crisis.
russian oil exports
Russia cut gas flows to the EU by around 80% between May and October
2022, leaving the bloc with a significant shortfall in its energy mix, and a
pressing need to find energy alternatives from other places.
While many of Russia’s former international partners have reduced or cut ties
with the country, Russia has broadly kept its oil production and exports at
close to pre-invasion levels by increasing exports elsewhere, including to
China, India and Turkey.
Energy imports from Russia account for a sizable portion
of India's overall energy consumption, which is 80%
dependent on the international market.
India would have to deal with a significant rise in inflation
as a result of rising crude oil prices. For every increase in
the price of crude oil, there is an increase in the price of
edible oil, which in turn has a negative impact on the
economy as a whole.
