The Economist Intelligence Unit prepared the 2022 Global Food Security Index (GFSI) with the support of Corteva Agriscience. In the GFSI’s index from 2019 to 2022, Uzbekistan climbed 12 places, and this year was ranked 73rd out of 113 countries. Uzbekistan became the best improver among 10 in ensuring food safety in 2019-2022.
Experts of the Institute of Forecasting and Macroeconomic Research conducted an analysis of changes in Uzbekistan's position in the Global Food Security Index in 2019-2022.
Uzbekistan rose to 18 places in Affordability category, in Quality and Safety category - 3 places in Sustainability and Adaptation - 36 places.
In order to improve Uzbekistan's position in the ranking in the future, it is necessary to increase the supply of food products in the domestic market, diversify the supply of imports, develop national recommendations on food, and expedite the introduction of mandatory labeling of food products.
