Opinion: Trust – not food security – is what’s under threat from COVID-19 consumer behaviour (Beef Central) 

April 08, 2020


Beef Central reported on the fear of a global food crisis. Production levels and global stocks for staple foods are at an all-time high and world prices for most food commodities have been remarkably stable since 2015. Many countries, as COVID-19 has spread, began to restrict exports which has caused much of this fear. FAO and IFPRI, in its blogpost, COVID-19: Trade restrictions are worst possible response to safeguard food security have called for a change of behavior and countries are taking heed.
