What state ensures that all people have physical, social, and economic access to sufficient, safe, and nutritious food?

• A. Food Security
• B. PPE
• C. Subsistence Farming
• D. Fertile Crescent

Answer: (A)

Food security is the state where all people have physical, social, and economic access to enough, safe, and nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and support an active, healthy life. Physical access means food is available where people live and can be reached; economic access means people can afford it with their income; social access ensures that all groups, including the vulnerable, have equitable access and that the food respects cultural preferences. Nutritious and safe means the food provides essential nutrients and is free from hazards. The other options don’t describe this condition: PPE is protective gear, subsistence farming is a farming method for basic household needs, and the Fertile Crescent is a geographic region.
