Overview
Food crises happen due to lack of either economic access or physical access. We explore Japan’s possible contribution to world food security taking into account supply and demand of grains in the world market, the likeliness of food crises occurring in Japan, conditions under which they might occur, impacts they could have and policies that could respond effectively. We propose what kind of policy measures Japan should take taking into account the differences with respect to economy in general, food consumption and agricultural production between the past food crisis just after the World War II and potential future crises.
