| description | Central Asia experienced major socio-economic shocks during the 1990s, which has increased food insecurity, malnutrition, and poverty. In response, Central Asia has adopted food self-sufficiency policies. This paper argues that regional and international trade can improve food security if implemented properly. However, a new constraint on food trade has arisen food safety. Using the World Bank s Living Standard and Measurement Survey for Kyrgyz Republic and Kazakhstan, this paper analyzes Central Asia s household food security policy options. Evidence shows that food safety practices will affect external food trade in Central Asia. Finally, a framework for reviving food trade is proposed. |
