"Ransomware actors may be more likely to attack agricultural cooperatives during critical planting and harvest seasons, disrupting operations, causing financial loss, and negatively impacting the food supply chain," the notice read, adding 2021 and early 2022 ransomware attacks on farming co-ops could affect the current planting season "by disrupting the supply of seeds and fertilizer." The agency warned, "A significant disruption of grain production could impact the entire food chain, since grain is not only consumed by humans but also used for animal feed ... In addition, a significant disruption of grain and corn production could impact commodities trading and stocks." The FBI's warning comes as "nearly two dozen food processing facilities across Canada and the US" have experienced a "string of fires, plane crashes and explosions," according to The Western Standard. The most recent incidents were fires at two Oregon-based food processing plants. The first, on Monday night, a fire destroyed Azure Standard's joint headquarters and warehouse facilities. The second was an explosion on Tuesday at a Shearer's Foods plant. Internet sleuths pieced together a compilation of headlines showing a spate of fires at food processing plants across the country in the last year or so. One sleuth highlights recent warehouse fires affecting food supply chains in a series of tweets. Dr. Benjamin Braddock @GraduatedBen Several very large food processing plants in the US have blown up/burned down in the past few days. Dr. Benjamin Braddock @GraduatedBen A fire destroyed the headquarters of largest independent food distributor in the US and theres barely any coverage of it Dr. Benjamin Braddock @GraduatedBen Last month, Wal-Mart distribution center Dr. Benjamin Braddock @GraduatedBen Taylor Farms, Salinas CA This is all happening as the Ukraine-Russian conflict has disrupted the global food supply chain. Food prices are at record highs, and the Rockefeller Foundation just released their timeframe of when a "massive, immediate food crisis" may begin -- they say, "in the next six months." Poster Comment: Rockefeller Foundation just released their timeframe of when a "massive, immediate food crisis" may begin -- they say, "in the next six months." For some reason two of the twitter images did not post. Their goal is to force us to take digital rationing cards.

Likely more fedgov FF ops.
