Ukraine is often called the breadbasket of Europe, and wheat prices have fluctuated along with the prospect of a military conflict in the country. While the world watches to see if Russian President Vladimir Putin will attempt a broader invasion of Ukraine, analysts warn that nearly a third of the world’s wheat supply could be threatened should he take action.

For this piece, I looked at what any escalation could mean for the global grain market and consumers around the world.
