Abstract

There has been a significant global increase in the intensity and frequency of extreme weather events in recent years, which is expected to continue in a future warmer climate affecting agriculture production around the world. With the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, food security instability is no longer due to natural disasters alone. Geopolitical events, economic instability, and country dependency have extended the possibilities of crisis to occur. Defining a country level on food security has become even more complex, and understanding how it works and the effect of implementing decision and policy as a country becomes more controversial. This particular paper is about conceptual food security issues and is not about specific methods of risk assessment or which methods are the best. The idea is that if we can better understand the concepts behind food security, we can make better assessments of how likely it is that a particular risk will actually happen.
