Consequently, the most affected industries are related to the manufacture of metal products, machinery, electrical materials, and the automobile industry, which also affect supply in global value chains.
Another of the sectors affected by the Russian invasion of Ukraine is the agri-food sector. This is due to the increase in the prices of raw materials such as feed and fertilizers, and also to the shortage of some supplies from Russia and Ukraine such as corn, sunflower oil, rye and mineral fertilizers.
This effect has a direct impact on the prices of meat and dairy products.
For its part, the price of gas, crude oil and oil continue to rise, threatening the transport of goods worldwide and the tourism sector.
In addition, the impact on the energy sector affects processes related to the chemical and metallurgical industry and the production of industrial gases, mineral products and paper.
Likewise, the fishing production in the Ukraine has also been affected due to the noise of the shelling that makes the fish go to the bottom of the sea.
