CEO Welcome The CEO of Soil With Jalmari Talola Chief Troublemaker (CEO) These days the entire world is focusing on the Russian invasion and the consequent crisis in Ukraine. It seems that the vast majority strongly condemns these actions, as we do at Soil Scout. The crisis is not just affecting Ukrainians, but it is affecting and will impact the whole world. The crisis is already exacerbating component shortages and we’ve probably only seen the beginning. Technology companies are keeping a nervous eye on how China will respond to Russia’s actions and how new international walls will rise and cut globally supply chains for goods and components. Politics over economy Beijing aligned itself with Putin as Russia prepared to invade Ukraine. Now its efforts to edge away are constrained by leadership politics. In the worst case, China chooses politics over economy, which may result in widespread embargoes against both Russia and China. That would lead us all to very difficult times for a very long time. The current component shortage might later appear as a mild prelude compared to the much more serious disruptions we may witness. The other major collateral victim of the ongoing crisis is of course our global food production. It is very likely that Ukraine will not be able to produce the same amounts of crops for export as usual, while exports from Russia are impossible at the same time. The global food supply market is quite agile to balance price and availability, but not many regions have buffers to tolerate the absence of both Ukrainian and Russian produce and fertilisers. Politics over economy Other producers will do their best in making up for the shortfall in an environment of higher commodity prices and very high production costs. The thin silver lining is, under these circumstances, that growers who invest in tech that enables accurate input optimization are in a strong position to benefit from the high commodity prices via a smart use of the expensive inputs. Still, we all hope no further escalations and that a peaceful solution will be found quickly. We also challenge all farmers to think about how they can prepare for the coming season and take their next steps towards even better productivity and efficiency, as in every case we are once again entering an era where farmer’s produce will be appreciated.
