A few weeks ago I had a worrying conversation with a farmer I know. He told me that this year, 2022, the grain harvest was quite good. He was able to produce 1000,000 kg of grain. Finland has been barely self-sufficient.
The problem is what we will have on the table in a year's time. My farmer friend told me that due to EU subsidy policy, fuel prices and the availability/price of fertiliser, he estimates that next year he will only be able to produce 300,000 kg of grain, a mere 30% of this year's harvest.

The Great Reset is progressing. You will eat bugs, or you will starve.
I lived through the collapse of Soviet Union but I don't want to eat 70% less or eat bugs.
I was born immediately after WW2 and we survived by eating dripping on bread with salt.
Now I'm trying to eat 70% less but find it difficult, since I already eat almost NO grain products because of IBS.
