Newsletter of the MED-Amin Network (July and August 2022):
The winter cereal crop year ended on a worrying note: while the multifactorial crisis caused already high prices (energy, food, agricultural inputs) to soar - some prices have since fallen back -the 2022 harvest in several Mediterranean countries was poor.
