COPENHAGEN, Denmark – The Norwegian government on Tuesday signed a deal to start stockpiling grain, saying the COVID-19 pandemic, a war in Europe and climate change have made it necessary.
In a statement, Norway´s ministry for agriculture and food said “the building up of a contingency stock of food grains is about being prepared for the unthinkable.” Norway had stored grain in the 1950s but closed down its storage sites in 2003 after deciding they were no longer needed. The oil-rich country, which has supported Ukraine, also houses the Global Seed Vault in its Svalbard archipelago, some 1,300 kilometers from the North Pole.
