Starting from Crop seeds, we walked the supply graph hop by hop to the goods you buy and the companies you own. Each step is the engine’s reasoning, scored for confidence and cited where a source backs it.
First impact
Sugar →Shortage riskSugar depends primarily on sugarcane, so drought-driven harvest losses tighten the feedstock supply and constrain sugar production.
89% confidenceHop 2
Sugarcane →Shortage riskSevere drought can cut sugarcane output, and sugar is a critical dependent input in the graph (dependency_strength 0.8).
96% confidenceSugarcane →Shortage riskKarnataka drought likely reduces Indian sugarcane output, and India carries a 25% supply share on this edge.
73% confidenceHop 3
India →Shortage riskIndia supplies about 80% of this crop, and severe drought can reduce agricultural output and make turmeric scarcer.
90% confidenceIndia →Shortage riskCurcumin Extract (Nutraceutical / Anti-Inflammatory)
India supplies about 82% of this input, so drought-driven disruption in Indian agricultural supply can constrain curcumin extract availability.
88% confidenceHop 4
Turmeric (Curcuma longa) →Shortage riskIndia supplies 80% of turmeric, so drought-driven output losses in Karnataka would materially tighten turmeric availability from India.
88% confidenceCurcumin Extract (Nutraceutical / Anti-Inflammatory) →Shortage riskIndia accounts for 82% of curcumin extract supply, so the Karnataka drought likely tightens the dominant source.
86% confidenceTurmeric (Curcuma longa) →Prices riseTurmeric is an input to spices & seasonings, so a turmeric supply squeeze raises ingredient costs for that category.
