The impact of climate change on regional food security

Abstract

Abstract Climate change has serious consequences for agriculture and food security, creating new risks and challenges and exacerbating existing local to global vulnerabilities. Climate change can affect all aspects of the food security of vulnerable groups, as well as various elements of food systems. Climate transformation and food security are two challenges that need to be addressed together. The aim of this research is to study the impact of climate change on regional food security. In the course of the research, the following methods were used: structural and logical analysis, monographic analysis, methods of statistical grouping. As a result of the study, using the example of the Southern and Central Federal Districts, the authors have analyzed the dynamics of various indicators of the state of natural conditions and the actions of regional government structures, which reflect individual elements of maintaining food security. The proposed methodological approach to assessing the impact of climate change on regional food security is distinguished by the use of private indicators for diagnosing the level of food security. The system of these indicators includes both the study of natural conditions and the level of ecological safety of the region. The use of the proposed tools for measuring the impact of climate change on regional food security will increase the effectiveness of the actions of regional government structures, which reflect individual elements of maintaining food security.
