How farmers are facing a fertilizer shortfall

A war in Iran is causing a global fertilizer shortage by blocking shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, threatening food security and likely increasing food prices. Farmers and governments are exploring solutions such as switching to less fertilizer-intensive crops, adopting precision agriculture, and adjusting subsidies, though poorer nations face greater challenges.
