Purpose of Research
○South Korea is experiencing a surplus of rice, while the self- sufficiency rates for major grains such as wheat, corn, and soybeans are significantly low. At the same time, the international grain market is facing uncertainties due to climate change and other factors. The purpose of this study is to examine various domestic and international situations surrounding food security through quantified indicators and derive strategies to enhance food security. These strategies aim to alleviate domestic rice surplus issues while increasing self-sufficiency rates of major grains other than rice and to address international grain market fluctuations efficiently. Specifically, this study sets out to define food security, analyze the current status, identify areas in major food security policies that require urgent improvement, assess policy achievements and limitations, and propose improvement measures.
