The Agricultural Crisis refers to a significant disruption in the agricultural sector that adversely affects food production, pricing, and the livelihoods of farmers. This crisis can arise from various factors, including extreme weather events (such as droughts, floods, or hurricanes), pest infestations, disease outbreaks affecting crops or livestock, market fluctuations, changes in government policy, and socioeconomic factors that impact farming practices.
The effects of an agricultural crisis may include reduced crop yields, increased food prices, food shortages, and economic hardship for farmers and agricultural workers. Such crises can also have broader implications for food security, leading to malnutrition and hunger in affected populations.
