As the world grapples with various uncertainties, food security has increasingly become a key concern.
Today, the issue is no longer merely about ensuring an adequate food supply, but also about a country's ability to build a robust and resilient food system that can guarantee a consistent supply of quality food.
For Malaysia, strengthening food security requires a more comprehensive approach that goes beyond increasing agricultural and livestock production. It also involves transforming local produce into high-value food products through research and development (R&D), technological innovation and commercial-scale manufacturing capabilities.
