China: National Food Security Law Published
The People’s Republic of China (PRC) published the final version of the "The Law of the People’s Republic of China on Assuring Food Security" on December 29, 2023. The Law aims to ensure that the PRC achieves "absolute security" in staple grains for food use and basic self-sufficiency in all other grains. It requires national, regional, and county officials to insure that as much of the PRC food supply as possible is produced and processed within China. The Law takes effect on June 1, 2024. This report contains an unofficial translation of the law.
