International Food Security Assessment, 2024–34

  • GFA-35

Overview

Food security is estimated to improve in 2024 relative to 2023 for most of the 83 countries covered by the International Food Security Assessment (IFSA) due to an average 3.4 percent growth in per capita GDP and easing of international and domestic food price levels for most commodities, including vegetable oils, wheat, sorghum, and corn. In 2024, an estimated 19.0 percent of the population included in IFSA, or 824.6 million people, are unable to consume the 2,100 kilocalories (kcal) per day considered necessary for a healthy and active lifestyle. This represents a 27.5 percent decrease (313.0 million fewer people) from the estimated number of food-insecure people in 2023.
