What resource would become scarce exactly? We’re producing ridiculous amounts of food, it’s just being wasted. If it were to become more scarce you can just raise the price of meat to give you even more runway.
Water, land, energy, and key minerals are all becoming more contested. Water scarcity is getting worse. Farmland is drying up. The energy transition depends on materials controlled by a few countries. Even with food, current production is wrecking the environment, creating dead zones, killing fisheries, and making future yields worse. Raising prices only goes so far when nations start taking what they need.
I get my water from an underground aquafer and the level of that aquafer is constantly going down due to farming corn and soybeans so they can make ethanol.

Which is a ridiculous waste, it’s not food and a terrible source of energy.
