Food Security Tops Government Priorities, Says Egypt’s Agricultural Syndicate Chief

Food security has become the highest priority for governments worldwide because of its close connection to national security, said Dr. Sayed Khalifa, head of Egypt’s Agricultural Syndicate.

Khalifa stressed that the relationship between the two is direct, placing food security at the heart of governments’ current agendas.

His remarks framed the issue as a national security concern rather than solely an agricultural matter, underscoring its importance to policymakers.

Khalifa described this focus as a global priority, saying governments across the world now place food security at the top of their concerns.
