After a brief period of stabilization, global food prices are once again creeping upward, triggering renewed concerns about inflation, supply chain fragility, and long-term food security. According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), its global Food Price Index rose to 128 in June 2025—a 28% increase from the 2014–2016 base average, and up nearly 6% from just a year ago.
While prices remain below the post-Ukraine invasion peak of 160 in March 2022, they are still 35% higher than the 2019 pre-pandemic average, marking a disturbing trend that shows no sign of returning to normal.
The Road to Inflation: Pandemic, War, and Policy Failures
The rise in food prices over the past five years has followed a series of destabilizing global shocks:
- 2020: COVID-19 lockdowns cripple global logistics and suppress demand—temporarily lowering prices.
- 2021: Demand surges back, but supply chains remain fractured, leading to inflation in essentials, including grain, meat, and vegetable oils.
- 2022: Russia’s invasion of Ukraine blocks exports from one of the world’s top grain suppliers, triggering panic in global markets.
- 2023-2024: Partial recovery through the Black Sea Grain Initiative and alternate routes, but fundamental supply chain and geopolitical vulnerabilities remain.
Now in 2025, the FAO reports a broad increase across several key commodities, including cereals, dairy, and vegetable oils. Harvest setbacks in parts of Latin America and Africa, coupled with fuel and fertilizer cost hikes, are compounding the issue.
The Elite’s “Sustainable Reset” or Engineered Scarcity?
While global agencies cite environmental pressures and market instability, some analysts argue that the current crisis is being exacerbated—if not orchestrated—by globalist policies.
“This isn’t just bad luck,” said Michael Cahill, an agricultural economist and food sovereignty advocate. “We’re seeing the effects of ESG mandates, anti-fertilizer regulations, and carbon limits squeezing farmers while mega-corporations and state-backed investors buy up arable land across the globe.”
Indeed, the World Economic Forum’s push toward “sustainable agriculture” has involved controversial calls to reduce meat consumption, shut down small farms, and promote lab-grown alternatives under the guise of climate action. Critics argue this agenda has constricted traditional food production, driving prices up while centralizing control over the food supply.
Who Benefits From Rising Prices?
While millions struggle with rising grocery bills, multinational food conglomerates, seed patent holders, and data-driven agritech firms are reaping record profits. As of mid-2025:
- Cargill and Bayer have posted double-digit profit gains.
- Bill Gates, now the largest private farmland owner in the U.S., continues investing in synthetic food startups.
- WEF-partnered groups are accelerating efforts to shift populations toward insect protein and plant-based lab foods.
“This is a soft form of population control,” warns investigative journalist Ana Toledo. “The same global institutions driving the health mandates, digital IDs, and energy restrictions are now tightening the noose around food access. It’s all part of the same technocratic net.”
Biblical and Prophetic Echoes: A Famine Engineered?
The creeping return of food inflation fits disturbingly well with the prophetic warnings of Revelation 6:5-6, where a black horse symbolizes famine and inflation so severe that basic food costs become crushing.
“A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius…” — Revelation 6:6
The biblical imagery now has real-world resonance: a denarius represented a full day’s wages, meaning families may soon struggle to afford basic staples.
Combined with global debt defaults, war escalations, and manipulated supply chains, the food system is under attack not just from nature—but from those seeking control over human survival itself.
Conclusion: Resilience or Dependency?
As the global food price index rises again, governments and citizens face a stark choice:
- Double down on globalist models that centralize food under AI-managed, synthetic regimes;
- Or reclaim food sovereignty, empowering local farms, reducing reliance on foreign supply chains, and resisting elite technocratic overreach.
Because as history and prophecy both warn: he who controls the food controls the people.
