Abstract(s)
One of the main concerns worldwide is food security, considering the challenges created by climate
change, the Covid-19 pandemic, and the Russia-Ukraine crisis, among others. In these scenarios, some
of the main discussions by international organisations and governments are related to the design of the
most adjusted policies to deal with food security and food sovereignty. The objective of this chapter is
to assess the consequences of the most recent events on agricultural output worldwide. Data from the
OECD (Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development) databases were considered for the
period 2012-2022 and the following variables: crop production (thousand hectares; tonnes/ha; thousand tonnes); and meat consumption (Kg/capita; thousand tonnes). The statistical information seems
to highlight no relevant impacts from the events since 2019/2020, for example, in crop production and
meat consumption worldwide.
