Force majeur! Break out your diplomatic dictionary!

"force majeure: 2: an event or effect that cannot be reasonably anticipated or controlled"

Ramifications of the Ukraine Conflict already occurring. Black Sea naval combat having evidently eliminated the possibility of grain exports from the Ukraine for anytime in the foreseeable future. 

"FOOD CRISIS: EU expects shortages, S. Korea feed producers to declare Force Majeur"

From You Tube and the Ice Age Farmer and thanks to both.

"The food crisis is here.  The EU's agricultural ministers held an emergency meeting, and are set to activate a 'Food Crisis Contingency Mechanism' in anticipation of the shortages resulting from the blocked 40% of global wheat exports that are no longer flowing from Ukraine/Russia. S. Korea's animal feed producers are preparing to declare force majeur, unable to produce feed without the 300,000 metric tons [of grain] they'd expected from Ukraine now stuck in the Black Sea.  Nations are banning exports to cling to what food stocks they DO have.  Things are escalating quickly in the food crisis."

NO more food exports from Ukraine/Russia/China. Fallow land in the EU. Fertilizer shortage. Retiring farmers. Shortage of grain used to make animal feed! Food prices escalating markedly even as we speak!

No wonder the Chinese have one-half of the stored grain in the world! As if they KNEW something big was going to happen. Honestly, all this does want you to believe the various conspiracy theories.

"Be ready for what is here now!!"
