However, recent increases in demand, from a growing population with increasing incomes, and impacts on production, from changing climates to geopolitics, have increased the pressure to new levels. The impact of these global pressures on Canadian agriculture and food are also increasing. In this Research Report CAPI Distinguished Fellow Ted Bilyea<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001bfRtIZBxQeDB2j_Rt8djeOon4lT8QYSz974av-8i0Ru…> frames the food security situation facing the world today, outlines China’s concerns and perspectives it brings to agri-food trade. KEY TAKEAWAYS · Global demand for food, and particularly proteins, will continue to rise, and an increasing number of countries are becoming major food importers, with China by far the largest. A smaller number of countries, including Canada, are becoming major food exporters. · Factors from decreasing stocks, increasing prices, and the invasion of Ukraine have increased food insecurity in Canada and around the world recently. The number of people facing acute food insecurity has soared from 135 million to 345 million since 2019. · Recognizing its heavy reliance on western countries for food, China aspires to be self-sufficient. This will be extremely challenging due to insufficient arable land and water, underdeveloped technology, and production risks, among other factors. · China’s effort to diversify its food sources away from the West is disrupting sustainable productivity growth and moving demand away from regions of low-carbon intensity agriculture, and creating serious environmental damage around the world. · A handful of countries are increasingly influential in food. Canada, as a major exporter and importer, has an opportunity and responsibility to reflect these dynamics in its agriculture, food and geopolitical policy and strategy.

Toutefois, l'augmentation récente de la demande, due à l'accroissement de la population et à l'augmentation des revenus, et les répercussions sur la production, dues aux changements climatiques et à la géopolitique, ont porté la pression à de nouveaux niveaux. L'impact de ces pressions mondiales sur l'agriculture et l'alimentation canadiennes augmente également. Dans le présent document, Ted Bilyea<https://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001bfRtIZBxQeDB2j_Rt8djeOon4lT8QYSz974av-8i0Ru…>, boursier distingué de l’ICPA, présente la situation de la sécurité alimentaire dans le monde actuel, les préoccupations de la Chine, et les perspectives qu’elle apporte au commerce agroalimentaire. POINTS SAILLANTS · La demande globale de denrées alimentaires, et notamment de protéines, va continuer d’augmenter; c’est pourquoi le nombre de grands importateurs de produits alimentaires augmente, avec la Chine au premier rang, et de loin. Le nombre de grands exportateurs d’aliments est bien plus petit, dont le Canada. · Des facteurs tels que la diminution des stocks, la hausse des prix, et l’invasion de l’Ukraine ont récemment aggravé l’insécurité alimentaire au Canada et dans le reste du monde. Depuis 2019, le nombre de personnes confrontées à une insécurité alimentaire aiguë a bondi de 135 millions à 345 millions. · Tout en reconnaissant sa forte dépendance envers les pays occidentaux pour son alimentation, la Chine aspire à devenir autosuffisante. Il sera extrêmement difficile d’y parvenir en raison, entre autres facteurs, de l’insuffisance des terres arables, du manque de ressources en eau, du sous-développement des technologies, et des risques liés à la production. · Les initiatives de la Chine visant à diversifier ses sources d’alimentation en se détachant de l’Occident perturbent la croissance durable de la productivité, détournent la demande des régions où l’agriculture est à faible intensité en carbone, et causent de graves dommages environnementaux partout dans le monde. · Un petit nombre de pays gagnent en influence dans le domaine de l’alimentation. Le Canada, en tant qu’exportateur et importateur majeur, se doit de traduire cette dynamique dans ses politiques et stratégies agricoles, alimentaires, et géopolitiques.
