But given the damage done by severe drought in parts of South and North America by the last La Nina, its swift return will keep a number of agricommodity markets on their toes well into 2022. Drought in South America, unusually heavy rainfall and severe floods across parts of Asia. Harvests of coffee, soybeans, and corn are hit in some places, while elsewhere bumper wheat harvests result.

In the Western Mediterranean Basin, as in other regions of the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has prompted governments to take severe measures to curtail socio-economic activities over the last months. Consequently, movement restrictions and the reduction of trade flows have severely impacted the transport and logistics sector. This major disruption caused by the COVID-19 to the transport system calls for a pause to analyse the priorities for the future and to build on lessons learnt to guide the recovery of the sector with the aim of improving its resilience and fostering its modernisation to boost growth, innovation, and competitiveness.

Mass dispossession of smallholder farmers is not a side effect of the ‘African Green Revolution’. It is the whole point. With the passing of the United Nations’ highly contested Food Systems Summit last month, the task of “feeding the world” has taken on a newfound urgency. But one point apparently lost on the summit’s attendees is that the project of “agricultural modernisation” which many of them have supported for decades is only making food insecurity worse in recent years, especially in Africa.

Egypt has a large and growing population, and its production of grains and oilseeds falls well short of its food needs, making large-scale imports necessary. It continues to run a bread subsidy scheme, with loaves provided to much of the population at prices well below the cost of production. At the same time, the Egyptian authorities are working to increase agricultural output, notably by focusing on increasing the uptake of new, higher yielding varieties, while providing information on best practices to the country’s farmers. According to the International Grains Council (IGC), Egypt’s total grains production in 2021-22 will be 16.9 million tonnes, unchanged from 2020-21. Production of wheat is put at 8.9 million tonnes, also unchanged. The country’s maize crop is estimated at 7.1 million tonnes, again the same as the previous year. Egypt also is estimated to have produced 700,000 tonnes of sorghum, the same as in 2020-21.
