A food security strategy for Jersey2012-01-24 08:39:30Delta-innovation has been working with the States of Jersey to develop a food security strategy for the island.
Food security is a somewhat emotive turn of phrase. It is linked by many people with self-sufficiency. It is political and it is operational. Moreover, it is an issue which has grasped the attention of policy makers at global, European and UK levels.
The extent to which people feel that they are food secure has direct bearing on their sense of wellbeing. To borrow a phrase from economists, it increases their overall welfare. This being the case the factors that go together to provide food security also have a social and a political value.
The draft food security strategy will go out for consultation early on in 2012
