The Grosvenor Group, a prominent property and farming firm, has reported that fertiliser costs for UK farmers have surged by as much as 70%. This increase is linked to the ongoing war in Iran.
According to the firm, the effects of these rising costs are expected to be felt in the coming year, potentially leading to dramatic increases in food prices.
As the situation develops, the implications for the agricultural sector and food affordability could be significant, highlighting the interconnectedness of global conflicts and local economies.
