FOOD SAFETY IN CHINA
Despite being the world’s largest food producer, China does not produce enough to support its 1.4 billion citizens. To guarantee food security, the country, a major importer of grains and meat, invests heavily in technology to, among other things, increase the productivity of its crops.
- China’s main food demands
- Investments in agricultural research and development in China and around the world

China ranks 39th out of 113 on the Global Food Security Index, while Brazil ranks 50th
To achieve food self-sufficiency, the country would need an additional 90 million hectares of land
In the first 10 months of 2020 alone, China imported more than 114 million grains
With 20% of the world’s population, but only 9% of the planet’s arable land, China faces a major challenge: the mismatch between its food demand and its domestic production. Between 2003 and 2017, China’s food imports grew from US$14 billion to US$104.6 billion.
By way of comparison, of the US$39.5 billion imported in soybeans, US$28.6 billion came from Brazil, which concentrates 3% of the world’s population and 4% of arable land. Even if all of China used all of its northern and northeastern lands for soybean production, it would still be insufficient.
