questions about food security

Cheap food is endangered?

Is it sufficient (talking national food security strategies), to know that we still have enough money to import food from other countries?

Global food systems are in peril because conventional agriculture is oil-dependent both input-wise and distribution-wise.

We are only one of the many countries that have taken cheap food for granted and made them part of our food security strategies.

We have less money than a lot of them. When push comes to shove, they'll pay higher prices, we'll lose out.

Now, ask yourself this: Is it enough that we, as a metropolis, have the same strategy for our food security? We still have enough money to import from the provinces, but how smart is this strategy? How long will it hold up?
