California Farms Impacted by War in Iran

It will soon be a month since the start of the U.S.-Israel war with Iran. In response to U. S. Military action, the Iranian regime has restricted which trade ships can pass through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical passageway not only for oil moving from the Middle East to North America, but also for fertilizer, the fertilizer American farmers need to start growing crops. The agricultural industry has started to ring the alarm bells about the potential impacts the crisis at Hormuz could have on food prices. But California farms are quite unique from the rest of the country. So what happens here could be different from what we see in the headlines.
