Produktbeschreibung

Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Politics - Topic: Development Politics, grade: Graduate, Covenant University, course: Agriculture and Food security, language: English, abstract: This paper discusses the metamorphosis that made security be viewed in relations to the needs of man such as food. The traditional concept of security involved the activities of the armed forces just like in several wars man has witnessed. Nigeria as do the rest of the world are in need of this security; food security which a well engaged "agro-potentials" can bring. Several causes of violence, conflicts and so on can now be traced to deprivation of food, means to get food or adequate access to it. Stability in Nigeria as well as in other countries is for the most part a function of food security in the country in terms of price, access, nutrition and sometimes stability in prices of the food. Hunger and malnutrition is as dangerous as or even more so than other causes of breaches in security because the effects are not restricted to the poor or less privileged, even the armed forces would be affected adversely. In essence, the paper puts forward that as a developing country with aspirations of being developed, agriculture should be engaged vigorously to create a situation of food security in all parts of the country in order to avoid the consequences that follow lack of action.
