Globalization is a process of interaction and integration among people, companies, and governments of different nations, a process driven by international trade and investment and aided by information technology. Without doubt, present-days, international trades in food play an increasingly important role in provision of sage and nutritious diets for the world's populations.

Besides, we need joint action both national and international to protects and ensure our rights to health and justice on food trading.
