Help Shape Australia’s National Food Security Strategy
Australia is developing a National Food Security Strategy to ensure our food system remains productive, resilient, and secure in the face of emerging challenges. This is your opportunity to contribute to a strategy that will impact every part of the food supply chain—from producers to consumers.
Why Your Contribution Matters Food security is not just about having enough food—it’s about ensuring access to safe, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food for all Australians. Our food system is a national asset, supporting both domestic needs and global food security through exports. However, climate change, supply chain disruptions, and economic pressures pose real risks.
By participating in this consultation, you can help:
Strengthen Australia’s food system to withstand future challenges.
Support innovation and productivity across agriculture, fisheries, and food industries.
Ensure community voices are heard, including those of farmers, fishers, industry professionals, and everyday Australians.
Your insights will help shape policies that protect our food supply and promote sustainable practices for generations to come.
