An overview of global livestock production and distribution systems and the relationship with food security

Today's food system is undergoing intense transformation and nutritional transition, and we are witnessing changes in all stages, from food production to consumption and physical and economic access to food. On the other hand, with the growth in income and urbanization and the global expansion of business, we are witnessing an increase in the demand for livestock products, which provides a sharp demand and traction for agricultural products. This issue puts more pressure on land resources through the demand for pastures and arable land for animal feed. The world faces increasing sensitivity to food health and environmental challenges. Animal husbandry also plays one of the most critical roles in food security due to the provision of nutrients and the role of employment and livelihood. Today, the demand for livestock products is increasing due to the world population. Therefore, with the influence of solid management, along with the development of livestock farmers and their income, while creating food and food security, the adverse effects of livestock and the environment should also be controlled.
