Calls for agro-food industry transformation

TA Research recommended four policy considerations that Malaysia could undertake to not only address food security, but also to make the country more resilient in agriculture and food industry.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia should give urgent policy attention and implement measures to transform the country’s agro-food industry to close the food security gap, says TA Research.

In its recent study, the brokerage said while Malaysia had made impressive progress over the years through various policy measures to address food security, much work needed to be done in order to ensure sustainable and equitable economic growth.
