Fixing the Food Security Crisis

The events of October 7 deeply impacted local agriculture and altered the purchasing habits of Israelis — for a time, more people bought local. But the war also revealed fissures in our food safety and security. In a five part series, Dr. Uri Mayer-Chissik delves into this, analyzing the current situation and looking at shifts in agriculture, consumption habits, food security, and more. He also discusses the power of community networks and offers solutions and paths to ensuring a more secure future for food in both times of war and peace.
