Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of conceptual issues of ensuring food and environmental security at the global level. In modern conditions, the problems of environmental and food security and its provision are becoming one of the most important issues and are of particular relevance. World population growth rates that are faster than the rate of food and agricultural production, as well as declining trends in the resources used to produce staple foods, further exacerbate the problem. The risks and threats to environmental security, which are directly related to food security issues, are analyzed. Factors hindering the development of food security have been identified. The strategic directions for the development of food and environmental security in the context of global transformation and their contribution to maintaining sustainable food self-sufficiency of the state are determined. The study showed that environmental and food security is politically and economically manipulated by state interests, which leads to an urgent need for reforms to ensure an innovative way of development and functioning of countries in order to reduce their dependence on external economic markets.
