“Biological Economies” redefines agri-food systems with radical new perspectives

July 24, 2025 -

"Biological Economies: Experimentation and the Politics of Agri-Food Frontiers" offers a radical reimagining of how we understand and engage with agriculture and food. Edited by Richard Le Heron, Hugh Campbell, Nick Lewis and Michael Carolan, this work introduces the concept of "biological economies," a paradigm shift that challenges traditional notions and embraces the idea that research is not merely observational but inherently performative and enactive....

Top commodities trader warns world is headed for food wars

June 28, 2024 -

Sunny Verghese, the CEO of Singapore agricultural trading house Olam Agri, believes that geopolitical tensions and other factors will spur conflicts over access to dwindling food supplies.

“We have fought many wars over oil. We will fight bigger wars over food and water,” he cautioned.

Food prices began to climb during the pandemic and then surged again when the Russia-Ukraine conflict kicked off, and the situation is expected to get worse.

Verghese also pointed ...

Beleaguered Western commodities buyers rely on China’s refined lead, zinc

February 08, 2023 -

According to Reuters, China exported 116,500 tons of refined lead last year – the highest outflow volume since 2007. It also marked a second consecutive year of next exports, which brought the cumulative total of 210,000 tons of lead exported since the start of 2021. Four years prior, China had only been exporting a total of 43,000 tons and importing a modest amount.

China's refined lead exports have found a market in both Europe and the U.S. due to high physical premiums ...

Commodities traders are helping to fund Russia’s brutal war in Ukraine: Here’s how

August 15, 2022 -

OilPrice.com reports that "despite a plethora of sanctions and boycotts, Russia has managed to export nearly a billion dollars worth of fossil fuels per day since its invasion of Ukraine," thanks to commodities traders in countries like Switzerland, Singapore and Dubai, where they serve as middlemen for countries that are snapping up heavily discounted Russian crude.

Even as Joe Biden and idiot Democrats reversed U.S. energy independence achieved by the real president, ...

Power shortages in China may cause world food and commodities prices to surge

October 01, 2021 -

The autumn harvest in China is underway, but with power shortages in industrial hubs, authorities see slow processing growth. This is especially true in the northeastern provinces of Jilin, Liaoning and Heilongjiang, where half of the country's corn and soybeans are grown.

This crisis is pushing concerns that China will have a tough time handling crops this year, as some plants were asked to cut their output to conserve electricity. Over the past year, China already ...

BILLIONS being spent by government on “Climate-Smart Commodities” – does this mean more GMOs?

October 24, 2022 -

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), using American tax dollars, has introduced a new "Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities" bioengineering and biotechnology program that combines two of the globalists' top agendas: changing the "climate" of the planet with a new economic order, and recreating the entire food supply into the image of "science."

It is not enough, apparently, for Big Biotech to control most major crop commodities, including corn and ...

Whistleblower exposes $347 million federal contract to move children like commodities

In an undercover investigation, James O’Keefe spoke with a contract specialist and whistleblower from the General Services Administration (GSA).

The children are being held as leverage in sanctuary cities across the country, ultimately to necessitate their ...

Senate introduces bill to classify bitcoin, ether as commodities under the regulatory authority of CFTC

August 04, 2022 -

The proposed bill was introduced by Senate Agriculture Committee Chairwoman Debbie Stabenow, a Democrat from Michigan, and Committee Ranking Member Sen. John Boozman, a Republican from Arkansas.

Stabenow and Boozman argued that this bill provides much needed regulatory clarity to the cryptocurrency industry by placing a major portion of the policing work under a single regulatory body.

"This fast-growing industry is currently governed largely by a patchwork of ...

JPMorgan estimating dramatic price increases for nearly all commodities as war, supply chain crisis continue

May 05, 2022 -

According to The Epoch Times, a note from the financial giant published on April 7 said that the cost of raw materials rose dramatically in March and will continue on that trajectory for the foreseeable future. In fact, the note said that prices could rise as much as 40 percent, thanks in large part to enduring Western sanctions on Russia -- a major supplier of raw materials -- following its invasion of Ukraine.

The outlet continued:

Russia is a main supplier for ...

Global food shortages about to become much worse as Ukraine halts all exports of commodities

March 11, 2022 -

In addition, zero quotas were ...

May 24, 2024 -

Beijing divested a total of $53.3 billion in Treasuries and agency bonds during the first three months of the year, while simultaneously increasing its purchases of gold and other commodities.

Analysts suggest this reduction in foreign exchange reserves is part of China's broader strategy to diversify its holdings from being dominated by U.S. dollar-denominated assets amid rising geopolitical tensions with the United States.

These analysts point to the economic impact ...

Russia could soon demand rubles for fertilizer, grains, minerals, timber and other commodities, not just energy

April 04, 2022 -

Just as President Vladimir Putin was set to give his announcement about Russia only accepting natural gas payments in rubles beginning on April 1, Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the lower house of the Russian parliament, issued his own battle cry to Europe and the West:

"European politicians need to stop the talk, stop trying to find some justification about why they cannot pay in rubles. If you want gas, find rubles."

A BBC News report added that Russia is ...

The DOLLAR will DIE… and the Ruble will DOMINATE as “commodities-based” currencies make paper fiat obsolete

March 24, 2022 -

There is no other rational conclusion. Anyone who is honest and who understands finance would reach the same conclusion.

See, the US is now characterized by a decadent, collapsing culture, insane levels of money printing and shocking inflation rates that are going to lead to food riots before the end of 2022. We may also see fuel rationing, food price controls, food rationing and similar actions that smack of economic authoritarianism. (The US also now features extreme ...

SYSTEM FAILURE: Commodities markets, banks, currencies and contracts begin breaking down… and the consequences will be catastrophic

March 23, 2022 -

In doing that, the LME committed credibility suicide. There is now no rational reason for any investor or trader to trust any transaction at the LME, not in copper, aluminum, zinc, nickel or other metals. Markets no longer work at the LME, and you are only allowed to "win" a trade if the LME gives you the nod. Wins can also be retroactively stolen from you by the exchange reversing trades. They will actually go back in time to screw you over for past winnings.

Just recently ...
