From all the combat footage I've been watching I have arrived at
the conclusion that Russia is intentionally destroying wheat
fields with it's artillery as well.

The only reliable way to secure grain supply is to drive Russian
troops so far away from the Black Sea that they could not hinder
exports even if they wanted to:

> KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian missiles hit Ukraine's Black Sea
port of Odesa just hours after Moscow and Kyiv signed deals to
allow grain exports to resume from there. Ukraine's Foreign
Ministry denounced Saturday's airstrikes as a “spit in the face”
to Turkey and the United Nations, which brokered the agreements.

attack on Odesa’s port, breaking its promises and undermining
its commitments before the U.N. and Turkey under the Istanbul
agreement,” Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko
said. “In case of non-fulfillment, Russia will bear full
responsibility for a global food crisis.”

Russia’s war in Ukraine as Russian President Vladimir Putin's
“spit in the face of U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who made great efforts
to reach agreement.”

so soon after the endorsement of the Black Sea deal, illustrated
"the Russian diplomatic dichotomy.”

on Odesa's port as “outrageous.”

Does this mean NATO will finally join the war against Russia? If
not, why not?

immediately break the grain-export agreement and underscore its
malign intention to provoke a food crisis in the Global South.

When is NATO going to get it? The only way to stop this is to
capture enough Russian territory that these targets are out of
range of Russian missiles.

This will keep happening whenever Russia wants it to happen
until Russian access to the Black Sea (including Azov) is cut
off entirely. This requires capturing not only Crimea but also
the purple area:
