that is why a new delhi has banned wheat exports. it wants to put india's own food security 1st, made frequent supply chain disruptions and rising food prices. but the government has stopped short of an outright ban india plans to on a shipment agreements into before the ban. and they will continue to export to food deficit countries, including egypt and bangladesh. but that doesn't supply much relief for major v importers. on monday, wheat prices, so to a record high following the indian governments announcement now put yourself in a position where in a low income country or lower lower middle income country, where you were, let's say, spending 50 percent of your income or more on food. and certainly your got your, your food got more expensive. this is what we're seeing in many parts of, of the world as we speak. and while neighboring countries like bangladesh and still anchor can continue to count and india for now. the question for their governments and others across the world is how they can feed their populations. if food prices
