Food and Future

For a sustainable world order, we must accept that we are responsible for the lives of all living things, not only today but also in the future. October 16, the date of establishment of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), is celebrated as World Food Day every year and the theme of this year's World Food Day has been determined as "Let's Grow, Let's Feed; Let's Sustain Together". It is predicted that the demand for agricultural products will reach 10 billion and increase by 60 percent. In order to meet the increasing food demand and ensure everyone has access to sufficient and nutritious food, production must be increased and food loss and waste must be prevented. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us that we need to change. The whole world is going through an extraordinary period. It has become clear that uninterrupted food supply is more important than ever. The indispensability of the agricultural sector in terms of food supply security is gaining more importance. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us how important agriculture, seeds, soil, water resources and food are.As an author, I hope to contribute to agriculture and literature in this book.
