FOOD SECURITY AS A GOAL OF GLOBAL SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT AFTER 2015

  • 1. University of Novi Sad, Faculty of Agriculture

Description

Attaining food security is a priority which has had a place in global development agendas for some time and will also feature in the future ones. Reduction of rural poverty, advancing agriculture and strengthening the human capital are the most significant mechanisms of improving the food situation in the world. The aim of this paper is primarily to give an appraisal of the results which have been achieved so far in the field of reducing hunger and poverty. Also, the research aims to determine the place and role of agriculture in planning global sustainable development for the period after 2015.
