Food security decisions: Food security can be defined as "everyone can get enough food to live a positive and healthy life." Food security depends on demand rather than supply (as there is currently no adequate food growth); agriculture is the world's largest employer. Factors influencing sustainable food security include literacy rate, farmers' education level, agricultural research and dissemination capability, non-agricultural income opportunities for transport infrastructure, social support system, trust in international security and international trade, domestic Civil war, and others.

The extent of food insecurity depends on whether the family can obtain consistent food. The range ranges from high food security, marginal food security, low food security to extremely low food security. People with a high food security level can get enough food. Conversely, people with very low food safety have reported that diet patterns were interrupted many times and food intake decreased. Food insecurity affects people of all ages and backgrounds. According to the report of 2016, out of 42 million people facing food insecurity, 28 million are adults and 13 million are children. Children, the elderly, African American, Latin American, and rural communities are most seriously affected by food insecurity. The effects of food insecurity on individuals may be malnutrition and malnutrition because they are not eating enough or do not eat calories in the sky.
