The Food and Agriculture Organization is warning that a closure of the Strait of Hormuz could trigger a global food crisis. There is concern that such a closure could lead to a significant increase in global food prices, potentially within a year, and some reports suggest the world may have a limited time frame, possibly around six months, to address the issue. The exact timeline and severity of the potential crisis are unclear, but the organization is urging the development of alternative trade routes to mitigate the impact.
