A recent inquiry by the Left Party in the German Bundestag highlights threats to food security from climate change and escalating prices, particularly for essential goods. Despite these warnings, the government asserts that the agricultural production for the current season is secure, with a self-sufficiency rate of approximately 85% for food overall. However, only 20-40% of the demand for fruits and vegetables is met through domestic production. To mitigate risks, the government is maintaining emergency reserves of staple foods and plans to establish decentralized stockpiles of ready-to-eat items to ensure immediate supply during shortages.
