Analysis of the food crisis in the new era

Abstract

Under the new development model of "dual circulation," it is essential to ensure absolute food security and to nip potential risks in the bud regarding food production and supply issues. In the face of extreme natural environments and a complex international situation, timely emergency measures should be taken and appropriate preparations should be made. To this end, this paper proposes the following suggestions on how to ensure China's food security: First, focus on agricultural production to enhance the overall production capacity and ensure a sustainable food supply. Second, break through key technologies such as "bottleneck" grain breeding and selection, and agricultural machinery equipment, using technological innovation and information exchange as means to achieve large-scale development of grain production. Third, from the perspectives of agricultural and industrial production, pay attention to the issue of food quality and safety. Fourth, in terms of grain import and grain reserve settings, consider both unblocking the grain path and hiding grain among the people.
