In less than half a century (1978-2020), China has transformed
itself from a country that barely fed itself to a powerful player
in the global food system, characterized by massive food imports,
active overseas agricultural engagement, and the global expansion
of Chinese agribusiness. This Element offers a nuanced analysis of
China's global food strategy and its impacts on food security and
the international agri-food order. To feed a population of 1.4
billion, China actively seeks overseas agri-food resources whilst
maintaining a high level of domestic food production. This strategy
gives China an advantageous position in the global food system, but
it also creates contradictions and problems within and beyond the
country. This could potentially worsen global food insecurity in
the long term.
