“…The researchers focus on the development of the theory of food security from the standpoint of ensuring and increasing the availability of food [3]. The progress of the considered research direction is particularly clearly revealed in such an area as the identification of the driving forces for the development of food security [4]. A separate direction in the research of food security remains the analysis of food independence, its essence and driving forces, including at the regional level [5].…”

Effective management of food security on a national scale helps to achieve a high level of well-being of society. In modern conditions, the role of food security indicators that characterize the economic availability of food is increasing. The present study is aimed at improving the range of indicators of food security, taking into account the evolution of views on the essence of food security. For this purpose, possible ways of expanding food security indicators are considered, and in the process of dynamic analysis of indicators, the feasibility of using them to measure the level and general characteristics of food security is justified. New socially significant indicators of food security are proposed from among those indicators of economic security that are currently considered by state statistics bodies as general indicators of economic security. The results of the study can be used in the activities of state authorities at the national and regional levels in the process of improving the state agrarian policy.

“…Enilolobo et al (2022) found environmental issues, e.g., acidic rain and emission of poisonous gases, were key factors affecting food security in the context of Nigeria. Galiev and Ahrens (2021) identified the determinants of the increase in food self‐sufficiency in Russia over the past decade, and the labor productivity, crop yield productivity of livestock and poultry, total factor productivity were considered highly related with the national food production efficiency thus influencing the national food security. Previous studies also show the persistent and severe starvation, which is a substantial indicator for food security, in normal circumstances, could be mainly attributed to the holocaust, vulnerable social systems, environmental threats, global warming, and pesticides, decreased wages, and interrupted distribution networks (e.g., Sarkar et al, 2021).…”

Food security is guaranteed only when unexpected shocks, e.g., epidemics, economic crises, and extreme climates can be well responded to the stable food supply. Food stability, which is not exclusive of the status that we have enough food stock to satisfy a population's food demand to avoid people from hunger for a certain period until the regular food supply recovers, has never been quantified. Here, we propose a new metric, the ratio of stock to demand, to quantify how domestic food consumption need of a population can be satisfied by the domestic food stock. This study collects the data available for 117 economies from 1991 to 2018 to analyze the grain stock-demand ratio (GSDR) and its determinants of the world. In terms of GSDR, global food stability has increased. In particular, the increased stability found expression in Asia and Africa. The increased stability was mainly driven by the growth of grain stock-production ratio (GSPR) and grain cropping yield (GCY) most significantly from 2000 to 2010 and the decrease of average labor input in unit agricultural land (ALI) majorly from 1991 to 2000. Meanwhile, GSDR was pulled down significantly by the sharp fall of grain crop land (% of total agricultural land) (GCL) from the year 1991 to 2000 and continuous decrease of employment in agriculture (% of total employment) (EIA) particularly from 2000 to 2018. Based on the results, policy suggestions are proposed towards sustainable development goal 2 (Zero Hunger).

“…In this regard, assuring global food security is substantial to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2), aiming at ending hunger worldwide (UN General Assembly, 2015). Food security has been under research from different points of view, such as drought, flood, crop damage, purchasing power, household income, family size, food self-sufficiency and agricultural and horticultural land size (Ataei et al, 2021;Galiev and Ahrens, 2021). However, Rezaei (2013) in a study in Iran highlighted the role of the government in achieving food security through supporting farmers by compensating agricultural water shortage, increasing the productivity of water supply systems and providing financial support.…”

PurposeThis research aims to monitor vegetation indices to assess drought in paddy rice fields in Mazandaran, Iran, and propose the best index to predict rice yield.Design/methodology/approachA three-step methodology is applied. First, the paddy rice fields are mapped by using three satellite-based datasets, namely SRTM DEM, Landsat8 TOA and MYD11A2. Second, the maps of indices are extracted using MODIS. And finally, the trend of indices over rice-growing seasons is extracted and compared with the rice yield data.FindingsRice paddies maps and vegetation indices maps are provided. Vegetation Health Index (VHI) combining average Temperature Condition Index (TCI) and minimum Vegetation Condition Index (VCI), and also VHI combining TCImin and VCImin are found to be the most proper indices to predict rice yield.Practical implicationsThe results serve as a guideline for policy-makers and practitioners in the agro-food industry to (1) support sustainable agriculture and food safety in terms of rice production; (2) help balance the supply and demand sides of the rice market and move towards SDG2; (3) use yield prediction in the rice supply chain management, pricing and trade flows management; and (4) assess drought risk in index-based insurances.Originality/valueThis study, as one of the first research assessing and mapping vegetation indices for rice paddies in northern Iran, particularly contributes to (1) extracting the map of paddy rice fields in Mazandaran Province by using satellite-based data on cloud-computing technology in the Google Earth Engine platform; (2) providing the map of VCI and TCI for the period 2010–2019 based on MODIS data and (3) specifying the best index to describe rice yield through proposing different calculation methods for VHI.
