Coronavirus outbreak has brought a global health emergency with a newfound
domestic and international trade disruption such as restrictions on imports and
exports of major food commodities, loss of lives, closure of various essential
institutions, and the likes. With the spread of COVID-19 around the world, the
food and agricultural sector have experienced a negative downturn with an
immense labor loss, inadequate distribution of food inputs around the world.
Thus, the question arises that to what extent can the food supply chain remain
resilient to the effects of the pandemic? And, what are the immediate and
lasting resolutions? Importantly, the resilience of the food supply chain is
critical to mankindกฏs
survival. In this paper, we highlighted the main challenges faced by the
resilience of the global food supply chain. We also present policies and
suggestions that focus on mitigating the impact of the pandemic on food
production and distribution systems.
