Middle East conflict and Mallorca's checkouts: Is a price shock looming?

Answer

How are farmers in Mallorca affected by rising costs?

Farmers are affected by more expensive fuel, fertiliser, feed and transport, all of which can raise production costs. Because many agricultural businesses have limited room to absorb shocks, even a moderate increase can put pressure on margins. In Mallorca, that can make local farming less competitive compared with imported products.
