Ukraine - Russia Conflict Impact

Today we had virtual collaboration between individuals in Austria, Brazil, Denmark, Hungary, the Netherlands, and the United States as part of a virtual exchange with the Global Agriculture Learning Center. Each month these students gather via Zoom to discuss topics in agriculture. In the past month the eyes of the world have turned to Ukraine. This morning students came together from several continents to share their experiences and insights around the ongoing conflict with Ukraine and Russia. We want to challenge all reading the blog to continue these conversations. Below you will find questions that we posed to the group that gathered and shared their responses this morning. 

Reflect and Discuss the Following:

  • How is the ongoing conflict impacting you/us personally and professionally?
  • How does the conflict influence agriculture (i.e. crop production, animal science, horticulture, viticulture, etc.)?
  • How does the conflict influence biodiversity?
  • What can we do to ensure food security?
  • How might things change as a result of the conflict? What might be done differently or what opportunities may arise?
