I started to excerpt parts of the article for a tl;dr, but this is an excellent article. It covers the war's impact on food production in multiple regions and in many different (and some non-obvious) ways. I encourage people to read it in its entirely as it's an excellent overview of potential food-related events (fertilizer shortages, weather problems, export restrictions, civil unrest) later this year.
If it's an option in your area, you might consider joining a farm share or Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) in your area: you pay the farmer up front and get a share of the harvest in return. It ensures local farms can continue to exist and gets you lots of high-quality local produce.
