ENSURING FOOD SECURITY IS A NECESSITY OF THE TIMES
Food security is one of the most urgent tasks facing countries around the world. The UN also emphasizes today that it is time to completely change the approach to the production and distribution of food products. After all, in an ideal situation, agriculture, forestry and fisheries are able to fully provide everyone with food and create a source of income for people, as in the book. Moreover, in such a situation, both agriculture will develop in the interests of people and measures to protect the environment will be implemented.
