Will the global epidemic cause a food crisis? It depends on the level of economic development (Sohu.com) 

April 28, 2020


Sohu.com published an article on the impact COVID-19 could have on food systems and the food supply. Director General Johan Swinnen predicts that the global economic recession caused by the blockade and other anti-epidemic measures that restrict business activities will lead to reduced food consumption and reduced nutritional status. People’s real income will decrease, and the expenditure on food will also decrease. “The lower the income, the stronger this effect, which means that the poor people’s lives will be more difficult.” Republished in SINABastille Post (Hong Kong), New Blue Network (CZTV), CN Beta (China), Bankar.me (Montenegro), Dazhong (China), 10jqka (China), Shingtao, Nong Thon Viet (Vietnam), and more than thirty, major, international media outlets.
