- Abstract
The paper intends to present certain analytical instruments for food security measurement at macroeconomic level that are available worldwide, regionally and nationally, by which this complex process of fundamental importance can be evaluated. As food security is a concept with multiple and various definitions, its assessment is made on the basis of numerous indicators, depending on the domain we want to approach and on which we like to operationally intervene. The adequate measurement of food security is of utmost importance, from economic and social standpoint, for food availability and distribution, from the point of view of the economic access for food, in quantitative and qualitative terms, of nutrition and governmental policy.
