China’s Food Security Law came into effect on June 1, reinforcing efforts to ensure the supply of grain and to fend off food security risks, while safeguarding economic and social stability as well as national security.
The new law comprises 11 chapters with provisions that cover the protection of farmland and the entire grain supply chain, from production and reserves to distribution and processing.
For China, a nation with over 1.4 billion people, the maxim “having food brings peace of mind” has long been the cornerstone of its approach to food security.
