The Minimum Food Security Quota (MFS-Quota) in Food Security Policy Modelling
Abstract
This paper proposes the construction of the Minimum Food Security Quota (MFSQuota)using mathematical economic modelling in real time. The MFS-Quota fixes a certain amount of annual food storage to prepare a country for any natural or social disasters. Any country can construct its own MFS-Quota for “food security policy”.Download Info
