Corporate agriculture is destroying national sovereignty and increasing risk of global starvation

As corporate agriculture condenses farming operations around the world, it puts the growing population at greater risk. When agriculture is run by a select few large-scale farms, food shortages are magnified, affecting the population more profoundly. According to the National Farmers' Union (NFU), the United Kingdom is losing its national sovereignty in producing its own food. They admit that more households are now vulnerable to potential shortages and volatile prices. NFU leaders are now urging leaders in the UK to come up with a plan that diversifies farming to maximize self-sufficiency.
