A new UK wide Food Security Index (UKFSI) 2024, led by Defra, has been published at the recent Farm to Fork Summit which took place in Downing Street on 14th May.
Working with devolved administrations, the UKFSI gives an assessment of the state of UK food security 2023 to 2024, using the latest available evidence. It is designed to complement the three-yearly UK Food Security Report (UKFSR) which is a comprehensive analysis of statistical data relating to UK food security. The UKFSR 2021 was the basis for government’s assessment that the UK has a high degree of food security due largely to sustained healthy production and positive trends in global output growth.
The UKFSI measures year-on-year change, building on the UKFSR evidence base but also taking into account wider intelligence and forecasts, and policy developments.
