Food shortages are incoming, as the food supply chain already in danger of breaking down.
With businesses closing, unemployment skyrocketing, and everyone
forced to stay at home, a hurricane is about to hit. And that is the Food Supply Shortage. This is the mother of all crises; food insecurity.
As the pandemic and the economic fallout has left a number of Americans in need of assistance.
Food Banks nationwide fear shortages as demand is exploding.
They could run out of food shortly, as demand intensifies, and donations and volunteers are dropping rapidly.
More American families are today relying entirely on food pantries to bring food on the table.
This is a dire situation families can only take day-by-day.
Food banks where low-income Americans can turn to survive; are now struggling themselves. They're overwhelmed by people desperate for help.
Foodbank donations have been cut in half at a time when queues are growing rapidly.
In just one week, over 3 million Americans have turned to meal centers, food banks, and kitchens for any help that they can get.
We risk a looming food crisis unless measures are taken fast to protect the most vulnerable, and keep global food supply chains alive, and mitigate the pandemic’s impacts across the food system.
It's an issue that goes far wider as well. Production and American agriculture are on the brink.
As a result, it means that the food supply is fast becoming a global problem.
In a situation like this, the policies of individual countries can have a global impact.
In the United States, agricultural workers are demanding more as they work to keep the shelves of our supermarkets full.
It's almost overnight that food workers went from being an afterthought in people's minds to suddenly being essential work. It should not have taken a pandemic of global proportions for us to realize that food workers literally feed us.
Some fear that this could be too little too late, with the supply chain already in danger of breaking down. The pandemic is hitting farmers hard. Some dairy farmers are being forced to dump their milk instead of selling it;

Other farmers are struggling to harvest their crops, which could affect what you'll see at the grocery store. Because foreign labor, mostly migrant workers filled more than a quarter-million jobs in the US last year. The harvest season is here, but there are not enough workers—seasonal foreign labor mainly from Mexico.
The crisis has delayed the US government's processing of their work visas.
Blueberry farms are days away from harvest. They urgently need pickers and packers. Most of their seasonal workers are stuck in Guatemala, where the borders are sealed because of the food crisis. Millions of dollars of blueberries could rot in the fields as the American workers do not want to do this kind of work.
