Topic: Food Crisis - Improved, Worsen or still the same in your country (No Change)? - page 8. (Read 1172 times)

The food crisis in my area has never really happened. But to be more precise it almost happened. And the government as well as elements of society work together to avoid it. This is done by increasing the welfare of the farmers. The government is actively assisting farmers in various aspects such as the procurement of subsidized fertilizers. so that even though the price of fertilizer originally increased rapidly, the government helped farmers by cutting the price by several tens of percent. so that farmers can still reach the price of fertilizer. so that there is also no price increase in agricultural products.

But we are more worried about the professional crisis as farmers. In essence, every year there are fewer farmers. because it is rare for young people who are interested in becoming farmers. so our concern is the less profession of farmers in our country. but for farmland we really don't worry. because even there are still many areas that have not been touched by humans whose soil is actually fertile and suitable for agricultural land. but the problem of declining interest in the agricultural sector is increasingly worrying. This can be seen from the decreasing number of vocational students who focus on agriculture.

The field that is receiving the most attention and interest from today's young generation is about technology and business majors such as management, accounting or all things related to the economy. everyone seems to want to be office workers. but very few are interested in becoming farmers. so in the next few decades. if this continues, it is not impossible that a food crisis will occur in this country due to the fact that there are fewer local farmers who provide agricultural products. relying on imports is not always a good choice.

I believe that addressing the issue of food crisis requires a collaborative effort among countries worldwide, and it is crucial to work towards sustainable solutions that ensure food security for everyone.

This can include measures like investing in research and development, supporting farmers, promoting sustainable agricultural practices, and ensuring access to affordable food for everyone.

Talking about the food crisis is the heart of national defense, because this source is very close to the needs of the people and if this sector has problems then I'm sure the country is not doing well, there are several causes regarding the factor of the food crisis and you have mentioned it in full, but what can be done by the government and the people themselves to avoid the problem of food crisis?

The definite answer may be to return to agricultural sources and the government must initiate this idea as one of the important designs in the welfare program or maybe it is included in the annual agenda as food self-sufficiency. While the formats and patterns may be used as before and I'm sure that each country has a different way of dealing with the problem.

For a while my country is a little safe from the problem of food crisis and even usually during holidays we have difficulty getting food, but for now our country has no problems regarding food and especially for food crisis.

This is exactly like in my country and even though the availability of food is quite abundant, the price issue is still quite high. This impact occurred right after the post-Covid-19 economic recovery and until now, staple goods have not yet come down.

The community's economy was quite disrupted after Codid-19 and we also know that people have difficulty getting jobs, so everything has an impact on financial stability to support basic needs that must be met, but even so in the area where I live it has been slightly resolved and even though not all.

Well, for many years now, there hasn't been any food crisis in my country; it's just been a hike in food prices due to the cost of production by all the food factories here. I don't know, but I know the cost of production these days is just becoming way too much for some of these food production factories. As a result, there is a hike in prices, plus the fact that the dollar value is not very strong in terms of purchasing power. From what the companies complain, it is not as if the raw materials they require for their production are scarce but because they are also paying more to get the raw materials, while the farmers or agriculturists are also complaining that the cost of farming those crops is much more expensive now because of the high price of acquiring some farming tools and machines and also paying for laborers, including transportation to the market. So upon that, there is no food crisis here because, definitely, you will see anything you want in the market, just that the price is very expensive. Food price here is not just stagnant; either you are buying at a high price this month or the next month you will buy at a very high price.

Food crisis situations vary from country to country, and they are influenced by many factors such as weather conditions, political instability, economic factors, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
In some countries, the food crisis has improved due to increased agricultural production, better access to food aid, and support from the government and international organizations. On the other hand, in some regions, the food crisis has worsened due to climate-related disasters, conflicts, economic challenges, and other factors that have disrupted food supply chains, causing food prices to soar and increasing food insecurity and malnutrition.

In the country where I live, there is no end  for  the food crises because the government is more concerned with fighting the opposition party than with the grappling economic situation. People have to depend on growing their own food and rearing their own animal. Subsistence agriculture.In addition, food that makes it to the market is sold at very high prices. People who can afford it are mostly the wealthy and diplomats in the country. Well, there are Markets in the villages where they run a credit based system for residents to ameliorate the worsening food crises.

Not really sure, I live with my mom(she handles most of the food expenses) and she hasn't really said anything about the prices being high again so it's either the price went back to normal or people just got used to the high price that it became something natural. Whenever I eat out though the prices have increased in general, but never really went down after that increase in the past so I reckon it's the latter instead of the former. It isn't enough to affect me since we're fine financially, but it may be a big hit for some lower-income families though.

after the covid-19 pandemic disappeared significant changes in terms of food and many others in terms of daily needs. even though it's happening in my country, workers' wages have increased a bit not much. and I don't bother because there are still many cheap prices that don't follow the prestige of the environment. survive, only we can control the management of money so that a crisis does not occur. individual and different needs

Costs are constantly increasing where I live. Each new week food prices become more expensive and the portions become smaller, especially if you are looking for quality food. The solution is to buy cheaper products of inferior quality to maintain your finances healthy and sustainable.

Unfortunatelly I don't think this reality is going to change anytime soon, because the society is blind to this matter. They seem to not worry about foods' prices become more expensive and about having to consume inferior products. People simply go with the flow.

Food prices in my country have not improved, in fact, they've gotten a little worst. A very slight increase in the price of food. Not across the whole country. Like in every country, some regions/cities/states are more expensive than others.
The City I live in is a very expensive city among cities in my country and things have gotten worst a little bit here.
Even farmers that produce what they sell are forced to increase whatever they want to sell because inflation affects everything.
Despite the fact that there has been a slight increase in price, I think the prices of food have been relatively stable lately when compared to how they were 4-6 months ago. 

Only in Europe? People from other parts of the world will correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think that situation is much better (if anything) elsewhere. If anything, it might be easier for people in Europe as they already have life standard higher than big part of the world so they can handle the price increase better.

Our country has moved forward from the pandemic food crisis. We are not having a food crisis due to lack of supply but the main struggle that we are experiencing here is the drastic increase of food prices. From the price of primary goods, spices, and vegetables, the prices are continuously rising each day. I'm not sure if the government is doing something to solve this problem or if they're also taking advantage of it. Poor people are mostly affected by this crisis and if they will not double their jobs, they will be having trouble sustaining their family's needs.

The government where I live has collaborated with several regions that have natural resources to meet food availability and security as well as to maintain price stability and the impact of inflation. It is the state's obligation to realize adequate food availability at the national and regional levels evenly to avoid a food crisis.

The government must also step in to stabilize selling prices to the public. It is common knowledge that traders hoard a lot of goods just to fulfill their desire to make multiple profits. The government's involvement in adjusting the selling price of food really helps the poor, even though they have financial difficulties but are still able to survive because food prices are still affordable.

Costs have increased but shortages are fortunately still not common. Environmental conditions often cause a problem in supply of many goods and that ends up correlating with the season but shortage is a far away term from that.

But it is better to be prepared for the worst with a war ongoing economic conditions of majority of the less influential countries are low. That means keeping a dynamic work portfolio being able to change with the need and not stockpiling. We dont need to stockpile stuff for years rather we need efficient workers and frugal investors.

If possible try farming on your own garden/kitchen garden, grow your own crops, it can cut down on some costs.

Generally, food in my place is back although not really the exact normal before the pandemic. I live in a metro city and so far basic needs are available. There are goods though that are expensive like meat. Some goods with ingredients imported like those that usually come from Ukraine and Russia are also pricey.

The main problem in my country however is it is controlled by the oligarchs. Meat became scarce during the pandemic and was expensive. After a few years, the price should be back to normal but the companies that provide the feeds were also quick to increase their prices massively reason why the price remains high.

Food crisis happened for at least 1 year in my area (last year) due to climate change and others. But now the problem has been resolved and in the last 2 weeks the harvest season has arrived. But maybe the problem is not about food, but the price of basic necessities is still very high which in my opinion is still difficult to control.

All kinds of basic necessities are still so expensive that I literally have to increase my monthly spending budget by more than 50% of the total regular budget. I don't know when things will get better, it's clearly an unresolved issue.

For me food crisis is when all the sects don't get food equally like if there is crisis both rich and poor are going to be affected. 
When prices of commodities are so high that poor customer buy basic commodities to put food on its table and they live in starvation that is actual crisis .
Rich honestly can buy anything and they can manage to get food even if its shortage .

I know the general term for a food crisis is that there is a shortage of food in a country and it is not available to anyone and both the rich and the poor suffer from this crisis.

However, when the price of food increases too much, it becomes out of reach for ordinary people. I would consider this as a food crisis too. Although the rich will still be able to buy expensive food, it is the poor who get affected mostly.

I live in an underdeveloped country, and due to the highest inflation ever, the prices of everything have gone too high and it included essential items like food and medicine too. For a common man, it is very difficult to survive when the wages and salaries are still the same or not increased to the extent that inflation has increased over a period of one year. The main reason for this is the global recession plus the political instability in our country.  

unfortunately the country where i live food crisis increases and now we are in worst position than previous. The reason behind this position is

Flood in 2022 where we lost 2k lives and 3 trillion economics loses. Lands are not recovered yet fully and farmers also have lack of seeds and other problem which cause less product this year

Because of modern era most of peoples are gave up farming and made trade his hobby. 20% of farming land converted into land property.

There may be other reason but these two are the biggest reason i think caused this food crisis in my country.

I haven't seen food crisis in place where I live but yes the food prices have increased from 100% to 200% during past two years. Due to higher prices the demand for some food items has reduced as people prefer to give high priority to those foods that have lower price tag. But, even in such conditions the food supply is still far higher than the demand. That's why I won't consider the high prices as food crisis in my country at this time.

As a general perspective food crisis is something that can impact our lives in one way or other and it should be tackled on the global level in order for everyone to avoid the circumstances that we may face if this issue isn't solved. Many countries are going through a rough time where food is not available in abundance. If the problem is tacked on global level then those countries will have sufficient food supply. People won't have to face any problems if the food supply isn't limited but more than enough to fulfill their needs.

Food crisis is something for those people who can not afford to have enough to fulfill their basic needs. I feel very bad for them even they have access to food in their country, but due to poverty they can't purchase enough for their basic needs. And, these days poverty is really on rise, I have seen families who really work hard but still are not able to fulfil their basic food requirements. That's something of concern more than food crisis.
