Abstract:

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee has always put food security a top priority in the governance. The food security governance capacity of China has been steadily improved, and the governance system has been greatly improved. With the scientific deployment of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the coordinated cooperation between the central and local governments, China has successfully responded to the challenges of food security under the global changes and pandemic, both unseen in a century, and has achieved remarkable governance results. However, during the food security governance process during the crisis, some risk points in China’s food security governance system have been exposed in emergency management, food reserves, public opinion management, and food imports. In the face of the ever-changing international environment, only by constantly summarizing and reflecting on risk events, improving the food emergency security system, building a diversified food supply system, and strengthening the resilience of food security system with multi-system linkage, can we have more confidence to respond to future food security crisis and achieve long-term stability of China’s food security.

Key words: unprecedented global change, epidemic unseen in a century, food security governance, food crisis
