surging global from prices. earlier i spoke to joseph glover, senior research fellow at the international food policy research institute in washington, d. c. i asked him what this would mean for global grain supplies? yeah, i think were, you know, the real positive aspects of this grandiose after months of where ukraine was unable to export anything out of the black sea. i, you know, of a sudden great story. florida news you had mentioned about 9000000 times of rain in the oil sheets have been export it out through the course with since august 1st. and that's good news for not just those countries receiving that grain, which include a lot of countries in the middle east, north africa, and sub saharan africa and other parts of the world. but also good news for consumers worldwide. just because that more is price. well, no doubt the repercussions of this will radiated corners around the globe. but give
