NATIONAL food security is a key pillar in the overall strategy of national development due to its reciprocal relationships with other socio-economic fields. An effective national food security strategy will create availability and affordability, therefore help reduce household expenses. On the government side, most of the country's allocations can be channelled to other deserving sectors.
One of the unique features of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (IR4.0) is the achievable efficiency, and the agricultural industry is among the sectors that will benefit greatly from IR4.0. Through the power of IR4.0, the agricultural industry will manage and provide food security assurance to people in a more organised manner while reducing the pressure on various resources.
