Consequences of Land Utilization, Agriculture and Water to Handle the Food Security Issues

Abstract

The study focuses on the intricate dynamic of agricultural value-added, water reservoir management, and food security in the United States between 1980 and 2021. The importance of agricultural value-added in food security is examined in this study, which adds to the current literature. Furthermore, the study examines how food security is impacted by economic growth, land use, innovation, and efficient water management. According to the findings, the enhancement of food security is significant due to increased agricultural productivity, driven by value-added practices, and robust water reservoir management. The study demonstrates the connection between economic growth and better food security, emphasizing the significance of sustainable economic policies. Efficient land use and technological innovations in agriculture can be used to ensure food supply stability. The research has revealed that water reservoirs have a moderating effect, demonstrating their significance in sustaining agricultural productivity and value-added activities. These insights are crucial for policymakers and practitioners, suggesting that a holistic approach, integrating economic, agricultural, and environmental strategies, is essential for addressing the multifaceted challenges of food security in the United States. A contemporary perspective is provided through the study's time frame, reflecting recent trends and policy implications in food security.
