Beijing Review published an op-ed by former IFPRI Director General Shenggen Fan on COVID-19 and food security. Fan writes, “COVID-19 is a global health crisis not seen in decades. Without proper measures, a global food crisis leading to a much larger humanitarian disaster may follow, caused not by a shortage of food, but due to panic that can lead to severe disruptions in the global supply chain.” Republished in CAU.edu.
