Introduction The FAO Food Outlook (June 2025) highlights how climate change directly impacts global food security. Droughts, floods, and extreme weather events are disrupting agricultural production and trade flows, amplifying risks to food access worldwide.

Global Trends Extreme weather reduces agricultural yields in key regions, increases price volatility, and places additional pressure on import-dependent countries. At the same time, climate change intensifies health risks and affects the availability of water resources. Cereal and meat production are among the most exposed sectors.

Impact on Food Security The decline in global stocks and rising food prices increase vulnerabilities in import-reliant nations. Food security is becoming increasingly fragile in areas with low incomes and weak infrastructure.

Conclusion Adapting to climate change requires investments in resilient agricultural technologies, efficient irrigation systems, and resource management policies. The FAO recommends strengthening international cooperation to reduce the vulnerability of global food systems.
