 “OWN-FOOD PLANTING PLAN”

Description:
Food security is vital for each one of us, as well as for our community/country. Because
food security depends on the availability and accessibility of food. A community/country is
considered food-secure if its residents do not suffer from hunger or fear of starving, famine, poverty
and in critical condition, dying or death.
When the virus and pandemic hits the world, Food insecurity became a major threat that
people experience in today’s world and it has been classified as one of the serious problems that we
have been facing until now. It affects our health and even our society, and generated a lot of
problems. According to a research, approximately 59 million Filipinos experienced food insecurity
even before the pandemic. The pandemic aggravated hunger in the Philippines as the virus ravages
the agricultural sector. It has been determined that the most important challenge in accessing food for
Filipinos is a lack of income caused by unemployment.
With this data, We created this action plan called “OWN-FOOD PLANTING”, which will
benefit each of us, Filipino and help our community/country to overcome the challenges of food
insecurity in our society and become food secured. By the use our own knowledge about planting we
could provide our own food and our basic needs. In this platform we could possibly attain food
security and maintaining the food availability to feed ourselves and to avoid the suffer of hunger and
starvation.
