How to survive? You would really be just simply needing money and you're good to go. Money is everything nowadays on which you could buy all the things you do want.
There's no such thing about being cheap or expensive as long it could really sustain and make you survive on day to day basis,then no matter how those price changes then it would really be your least concern.
There might be some outages which if that happens then importation would really be that be more and this causes for the price to hike up, but since you do have the money then you dont really care
but if you are someone who is really that just an average wage earner then every minimal price movement could really be felt and there's nothing we can do here since its in fact the reality,
which there's no way on avoiding it.

Therefore, the best thing to be done is to find another source of income and job on which you could really be having some income stream. Mix it with some investment and business as much as possible.
Expand as much as possible and repeat. You wouldn't really be thinking of any problems in related with goods and services that their prices are really that increasing
since you could be able to afford then it wont really be that a problem.

Yes, the answer is always "money.", this is something that everyone knows and is aware of, but there are still many people who always ask the question of how to survive during the recession, how to survive when there is a lack of food...So many questions about how to survive in an unstable economy, while there is only one answer: we need money to solve everything. Regarding how to make money, besides working hard, improving thinking, skills...I can't find any other way. No one can bring us wealth if we don't work harder and try harder every day. If income is not enough, we just need to look for an additional source of income, but many people do not want to work more to have more money. People like not working and still have money, so they always ask questions like this.

How we can survive it.
1. By building more machines for food production
2. Land reservation for agriculture.
And encourage more people to go into agricultural jobs. Because of the emerge of the opportunities on the digital age, many are dwelling into jobs and opportunities that are into the digital space and the ones that are remaining on the agricultural sectors are the older farmers that have been there for a very long time although some of them are passing the job and task to their children. It cannot be denied that many of these kids wishes more for their lives and not go to the path of being into agriculture. So, we need more farmers to have food security.

Global warming and climate change can't be avoided anymore since we don't really care about it, especially the Government that only wants power and developing things that's just gonna destroy the world.

Here in my country, farmers are producing lots of food like rice, vegetables, even fruits but they never get the support from our government, so their harvest are mostly ended up in the side of the road rotting because the government didn't want to buy it in a fair price so the farmer's have no choice but to give it away or leave it there. If we really want to solve the poverty, food shortages, the Government is the one who should make the first move.

If they don't want to, then we're on our own to survive this kind of problem, lucky for those living in provinces since they can easily raise crops and animals.

Climate change has been a problem for a long time. To be honest, it has been talked about for decades. I was in high school 30 years ago, and it was a problem that was really being talked about. Now, when it comes to food shortages, in those kinds of situations, I can really say that it's good to live in the provinces because even if you don't have money, you can easily survive.

Because when you are in the city, you will have a really hard time surviving because all actions and movements require you to have money. If you don't have money, you will definitely be hungry, and your stomach will growl. So what other people do is plant the empty lot they have in their yards with food such as vegetables, fruits, and so on, just in case they somehow have a source of food, and at the same time they also save expenses.

Currently research on rice plants continues to be carried out by several scientists, they are of course trying hard to find rice that is immune to any conditions including extreme weather and also plant pests which are often the cause of crop failure. Rice has become a basic need for many countries, especially countries on the Asian continent, even China and India are competing to stockpile rice in preparation for all bad possibilities in the future. In each country where the majority of citizens are rice consumers, the role of their country's government is very important.

How We survive food shortages.
 This has been the major problem affecting the under developing countries and people  at large, and it has lead to lost of life of many.
To me I can say, when the level of food supply is not up to the demand of food it causes shortage of food.
It can also be put in another way as inadequate production of food.
Life has made us understand that food is one of the basic need of man and without it man can not grow properly.
There factors that causes food shortages.
1. Low space for agricultural products.
2. Local equipment agricultural.
How we can survive it.
1. By building more machines for food production
2. Land reservation for agriculture.

Already many organizations or governments have started working to reduce foodshortage. Although these also have adverse effects on nature. Even so, I think encouraging common people to take up agriculture could be a way to reduce future food shortages. Moreover, this sector should be developed with a view to innovating new agriculture that does not harm the environment. But nowadays due to high profit in other work many farmers are doing other work today apart from farming and this has a bad effect so if the government gives incentives to the farmers by waiving various taxes to encourage them then I think this sector will grow.
There is always a risk involved in doing something that will reduce or prevent food shortages, as you say that will have a direct impact on nature. However, if you compare the opening of new land for more beneficial interests with land clearing for commercial purposes, the comparison is clearly very different. But it also doesn't mean we don't have to pay attention to this, for example by opening new land to save food, it must be managed properly. Don't let it become a failed project, or in the sense that they only do land clearing but in action it's big 0.

We had covid for approximately 2 years, then we had a situation, when during first year of war between Russia and Ukraine we had wheat shortage. As minimum it will take 3 years to recover, but in reality it will take more.

What is food shortage for you? You see less food at the store, or you can afford to buy less? First one is shortage, second is your financial situation. Personally, I see no food shortage. If we take wheat shortage problem as example, then I can replace pasta and bread with rice or buckwheat.
War is still going on and that's one of the hardest parts about it. I know that a lot of people think it is getting closer to the end with all of that Wagner deal and all, but it is not getting anywhere close just yet, we still have to wait for it to end. Without that war ending we are not going to have any type of ending at all, it is not going to be possible and we are not going to have any recovery.

We will have to face the reality that life will be very tough as long as there is a war that spends maybe at least 100+ billion a year, probably more. Plus it prevents the world to be connected, that's the issue and I believe that we are going to face a lot of trouble because of it as well. We need to do a lot better overall, that's just the way it should be considered in the end.

Lets not turn this topic into politics discussion. From my point of view, food shortage is dependable from region or country, its financial success. Poor countries will always have food shortage, but the problem will not in food availability, but because they peoples income is low and they cant afford food. Under "food shortage" I understand situation, when shops are empty and we need to search or fight for food. Like in post apocalyptic movies. So far, within 100m of availability, I have shops, cafés and restaurants full with food.

When there is any form of insecurity in the land, there can never be any growth nor development that could take place. A full blown war is far worse as we've all seen it destabilize the food production going on in the country.
I too have fears that the war in Ukraine is coming to an end any time soon and the war between both parties has shaken the rest of the world. Both countries before the beginning of the war, provide either goods and services that was very vital to a lot of countries and now, those goods and services provided have either been cut drastically or stopped in its entirety and that has felt a big blow to economies of different countries.

We would need peace in order for growth and development. For the world to be connected, we may need a whole lot more than peace.

There is really nothing any crypto could do to solve the food shortages and climate problem, the best crypto and blockchain could do in order to help this problem is collecting the data, but if there is no breakthrough in agriculture science and industry, even the most sophisticate blockchain and crypto tech wouldn't help.

To overcome food shortages and climate problems, of course, the cooperation of all parties is needed,
cannot only rely on one party, especially in this case hoping for crypto and blockchain,
this is a big problem and the government needs to make the right policies.

I fail to see any connection between crypto and agriculture so far. If you happen to know about this connection, I would be delighted to learn from you.

However, if you're referring to your concerns about a future food crisis, there could be several factors at play. I've also observed this issue closely as I live in an agricultural environment.

- As times progress, agriculture is considered outdated. It reflects the current mindset where TikTok is perceived as more appealing than pursuing farming, which is deemed old-fashioned.

- Farmers are undervalued. I fully comprehend this matter as I have an uncle and neighbors who work as farmers. The government neglects the well-being of farmers, resulting in minimal profits for them during the harvest season.

- The crisis of the next generation of farmers. The younger generation lacks interest in the realm of rice farming. I worry that a decline in rice cultivation may occur in the coming years, which could trigger a food crisis.

My suggestion is for the government to prioritize the welfare of farmers, ensuring that the food industry remains competitive and capable of meeting our long-term needs.

That is true food shortages have been a global problem today. With that shortages the cost of food became so expensive because of the situation globally. Climate change, economic downturns, natural disaster, pandemic and the likes are among the cause of food shortages. For us to be able to overcome or to survive food shortages we need to plan of other option to be able to survive. We can start to grown our own vegetables if you have a vacant lot and we can grow different kinds of vegetables that we can consume later on and we can save funds instead of buying to the groceries. We can also preserve some food that can last for a long period of time. Stock up some food like canned goods, rice pasta etc that we can eat in times of food shortages.

Then it looks that there is no food shortage, but the problem is in poverty and food availability. Every time I visit market and food stores, I see no food shortages there. Shelves are always full with food. I only observe different food range and availability, but this is mainly due to increased delivery cost. I cant say there is no food shortage, there is always an alternative. Maybe we had a period when we have problem with amount of food we get in shops, but imho that was caused due to covid and restrictions on working places. Fewer workers, decreased production. Now we are facing consequences of it and will be having them for few years. Imho in few years everything gonna get normalized or balanced as it was in past.
You are right, the current food availability tends to decrease due to the influence of the climate during the dry season, the government's alternative option is to provide imported food on the market for a higher price range because local farmers have decreased food production and agricultural base areas are also experiencing a food crisis. After post-covid, the availability of food has not recovered optimally and local farmers have only experienced abundant harvests for only a year, but in the last year many farmers have suffered losses due to the influence of the dry season, we hope that the dry season will end soon and food availability will soon increase. I am worried that if food prices are not resolved immediately due to the lack of local food availability it will trigger an increase in the prices of other basic goods. I hope the government has the right solution to address the food problem.

I have only witnessed food shortages during the pandemic season because people were panic buying and hoarding goods so it was hard for us to look for foods that we need. After the pandemic, I've never seen food shortages anymore. I agree that the reason might be poverty. Foods are actually present everywhere, it's just that some people lack money to sustain their necessities including primary goods.
However, the possibility of experiencing food shortages might still happen in the future so it is better if we know how to look for alternatives like planting from our backyards, storing non-perishable goods, and more. We still need to be prepared for the possible challenges that might come our way.

if we talk about this globally, then the shortage of food staples is very difficult for us to overcome, because it is the government's business to deal with imports and exports. however, there are some countries where the agricultural land is very good, or the sea has a very large source of fish or sea creatures. because it is a government matter of import and export. what we need to do is improve the finances we have so we can buy it.
If you are thinking of increasing your food sources personally, or in your area. then you need to improve your agricultural knowledge, or waters. I've seen several people who make their own food sources, they learn farming, animal husbandry, hydroponics, learn things about fish farming, and others. in fact, I've seen several people who started raising laying hens when the pandemic occurred. it is a smart way to produce food sources every day.
The food problem will continue to get worse. Scientists talk about this, and clairvoyants predict. This is facilitated by rapid climate change, which everyone has already felt. Moreover, the process accelerates and becomes irreversible. In part, it will be necessary to restructure agriculture for growing vegetables and fruits that are not characteristic of the regions, and in part the soil will become unsuitable for this. In both cases, the losses will be significant.
If the population of the planet continues to grow, then the problem of food will affect us all.
