|  Food security exists when all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life. Achieving food security means ensuring that sufficient food is available, that supplies are relatively stable and that those in need of food can obtain it. It is in the interest of all governments to make sure that people have enough to eat. Hungry people cannot work; hungry children cannot learn. Without a well-nourished, healthy population, development is unattainable. | | |  Food security depends on three factors: availability, stability and accessibility of food supplies. To achieve national food security, a country must be able to grow sufficient food or have enough foreign exchange to enable it to import food. Similarly, households must have sufficient income to purchase the food they are unable to grow for themselves. | | | | |
