Pandemics as health and humanitarian crises have exerted traceable impacts on food security. Almost all past and current pandemics have created a food crisis that affects a share of the global population and threaten global food security. With the more frequent outbreaks of emerging and re-emerging diseases or pandemics, this paper looks at the various types of impacts from the current coronavirus crisis and past pandemics to identify their major impact on food security.
To this effect, key strategies that could be put in place to ensure the efficient resilience of food systems before, during, and after the pandemics to mitigate the negative impact of the pandemics on global food security are recommended. The most recent effects of the current coronavirus crisis have been disruptions in the flow of farm labourers and inefficient farm operations leading to postharvest food losses.
Modification of diets between social groups has also been observed. Future response orientations to prevent and mitigate the effects of pandemics on food security will consider pro-active and adapted policy, program, and institutional actions towards the systemic development of global food systems as an interconnected network.
作为健康和人道主义危机的大流行病对食品安全产生了可追踪的影响。几乎所有过去和现在的大流行病都造成了粮食危机，影响到全球一部分人口，并威胁到全球粮食安全。随着新出现和再现的疾病或大流行病更频繁地爆发，本文从当前冠状病毒危机和过去大流行病的各种影响入手，确定它们对食品安全的主要影响。
为此，建议在大流行病之前、期间和之后采取关键战略，以确保粮食系统的有效恢复力，减轻大流行病对全球粮食安全的负面影响。当前冠状病毒危机的最新影响是农业劳动力流动中断和农业作业效率低下，导致收获后粮食损失。
还观察到社会群体之间的饮食变化。未来应对大流行病对粮食安全影响的方向将考虑积极主动和适应性的政策、方案和体制行动，将全球粮食系统作为一个相互关联的网络进行系统发展。
