UK Farmers Say Food Supply May 'Grind to a Halt’ as Major Fertiliser Plant Closes Over Energy Crisis

"Concerns were raised of a large-scale food catastrophe since western countries slapped
sanctions on Russia....UK farmers have issued the dire warning that the country’s food supply is now “vulnerable" after soaring energy bills prompted a major British fertiliser plant to shut down operations, reported The Telegraph.
CF Fertilisers, a subsidiary of US-based CF Industries Holdings, Inc., is one of Britain's largest ammonia plants. It announced on Friday that it was closing its Ince manufacturing plant near Chester as it can no longer afford to keep it open." Sputnik
