“…Food security according to the FAO, is a guarantee of constant access to the world's population, both countries and regions to get food in the amounts necessary to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle [4]. This definition also applies when everyone has access both physically and economically at all times to fulfill their diet including safe and nutritious foods, and at the same time provide food preferences for an active and healthy life [5] Many factors cause food insecurity such as poverty, low access to basic social services, and the incompetence of some public policies [6] In general, the definition of local food is food produced, marketed, and consumed by local or local communities.…”

The research aims to find out the types, levels of people's preferences as well as factors that affect local food consumption, especially carbohydrate source food in Marore archipelago. The research was conducted in Marore sub-district, namely Kawio and Marore Village which carried out by using survey methods. The results showed that types of local food farmed by the people of Kawio and Marore villages are cassava, daluga, taro yam, sweet potato, banana, and sago as a source of carbohydrates but the farming system and post-harvest handling are still traditional. The level of food preference of people between Kawio and Marore villages are difference. Based on education level, there is a significant real negative correlation for bananas, based on the age, the correlation is significant for cassava and bananas, and based on income per capita there is no correlation. The level of preference for food is generally from ordinary to like very much in the border area of Sangihe Islands influenced by the availability of food, the consumption patterns of local community and the community’s access to get food. Cassava is the most preffered type of food besides rice, so cultivation and post-harvest system must to be optimized.

In the present work, we assessed the level of food security in the Chuvash Republic according to the level of physical availability and affordability as well as sufficiency of food products. Adequacy of consumption is determined by comparing the actual volume of product consumption with the rates authorized by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. The analysis revealed a high level of physical availability of food in the region that it is not supported by a sufficient economic basis. As a result, a certain part of the population does not have the opportunity to receive foodstuff in quantity and quality within permissible recommended rates. Solution of the food security problem requires a systematic approach based on the development of agricultural production and solution of the social and economic problems aimed to improve the household quality of life.

In the context of a dynamically developing competitive market, global changes in production and the distribution of production resources, the increasing influence of political and socio-economic factors, the issues of ensuring the economic security of both the region and the industries included in its economy acquire special relevance. Agriculture is, on the one hand, the most vulnerable sector of the economy and is influenced by many factors, but, on the other hand, the most significant for the sustainable development of the Altai Territory. The study concluded that it is highly competitive and dependent in food security in other regions of the Siberian Federal District and the dynamics of development of the agro-industrial complex of the region. However, there are threats to economic security, the presence of which impedes the effective functioning of the agro-industrial complex. Based on the study, the main risks and threats have been identified that are of the greatest importance for the economic security of agriculture in the Altai Territory: a low level of investment activity, deterioration of agricultural machinery, a shortage of qualified personnel, risks of natural factors.
