The Impact of Entrepreneurship on Food Security

Abstract

 This study explores the relationship between entrepreneurship and food security, focusing on how entrepreneurial activities contribute to enhancing food production, distribution, and sustainability. It examines the role of agricultural startups, innovation in food systems, and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in addressing challenges related to hunger, resource scarcity, and economic instability. The research highlights that entrepreneurship acts as a driving force for improving productivity, creating employment opportunities, and fostering technological innovation in the agri-food sector. Furthermore, it discusses how entrepreneurial initiatives can strengthen local food systems, reduce dependency on imports, and promote sustainable agricultural practices. Through a multidisciplinary approach that integrates economic, social, and environmental perspectives, the paper demonstrates that entrepreneurship is not merely a business activity but a strategic instrument for achieving national and global food security.
