Ukraine: Grave repercussions on markets Patuanelli tells G7

(ANSA) - ROME, MAR 11 - The Ukraine war will have grave repercussions on global agrifood markets in terms of both supply and uncontrolled price hikes, Farm Minister Stefano Patuanelli told a G7 farm meet Friday.
    "Particular concern is raised by the lack of stockpiling of cereals and oily seeds, of which Ukraine is one of the biggest exporters, and the risk of a halt in exports of fertilizers and fuel by Russia, in response to economic sanctions," he said.
    The conflict in Ukraine after Russia's invasion of its neighbour was at the centre of an extraordinary session of G7 farm ministers which Patuanelli addressed in a videocall. (ANSA).
