This paper covers the issues of one of the basic physiological needs, namely the need for food. The purpose of this paper is to assess the level of food security in Poland in 2007-2016 based on a dynamic approach. Key terms of relevance to food security were defined. The analysis covered 4 major conditions of food security: (i) physical availability of food; (ii) stability and reliability of food supplies; (iii) economic availability of food; (iv) health suitability of a product. The research also covered the level of self-sufficiency in selected food products which is another important aspect of food security. The research was based on statistical data from the Central Statistical Office and academic publications. The study found that Poland was self-sufficient in all basic food products, and confirmed that four conditions of food security were met simultaneously. Minor problems were only discovered in health suitability of a product, namely the fact that fat accounts for an excessive amount of energy in the Polish households' diet. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
