  • A 2023 study by Leiden University in the Netherlands computed the percentage of each country’s current area that would be required to grow enough food to feed the entire country. Lower percentages equate to greater self-sufficiency.
  • Some countries would require more than 100% of their total land area to become food self-sufficient.
  • The Global Food Security Index (GFSI) is an annual assessment measuring food security through indicators including affordability, availability, quality, and safety. Domestic food supplies factor heavily into this assessment.
