Article is specifically about the UK situation. Anyone know the status elsewhere? I’d guess it generally varies from somewhat better in low density countries to a lot worse in highly urbanized countries, but with exceptions where the supply has been diversified.
Don't have the exact link right now but I remember reading an Italian newspaper article a few days ago saying that Italian agriculture is going to be massively impacted by the fact that approximately 300,000 East-European workers had returned to their countries because of the virus.
I actually found something similar, it's this article [1] (in Italian) which is in fact an interview with an Italian agricultural "imprenditore", where he says that there usually are 370,000 seasonal foreign workers working in Italian agriculture, that's 27%. One can imagine that many of them have by now returned to their countries of origin with no possibility of easy return.

Many things we want available year round and it isn't actually available year round without artificial growing conditions - for example tomatoes. I would suppose those could be grown anywhere but as a general rule I don't think they are.
