Chinese food safety index ranked in the upper reaches of

Through the storm of the Chinese food is safe degree? I'm afraid in many people's minds, domestic food already posted the quality does not have safeguard, serious safety problems label. In fact, change an angle to look, China's food safety level is far did not imagine so, even leading to the level of economic development stage.

Economist Intelligence Unit EIU (Economist Intelligence Unit) recently released "global food security index report" (Global Food Security Index), the index including food prices, food supply capacity, quality and safety guarantee ability 3 aspects 27 qualitative and quantitative index. Official data report according to the who, the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, the world bank and other authorities, the status of food safety comprehensive assessment model of dynamic datum of 107 countries, and gives the overall ranking and classification ranking.

The results show, the developed countries to continue to occupy the top 25%, the United States, Norway, France, the first three. China in the 107 countries in the top 42, including: food price affordability rankings 47, ranked 41 in the food supply capacity, quality and safety guarantee ability ranked 43.

China's food safety standards in the world in the upstream, the forefront of the developing countries. The report will be included in China (Good Performance) a good performance, and the quality of security classified as one of the 7 indicators of China scores higher pay special tips. While the population of another development in India ranked in 70 place, far behind china.

The level of food security and development is closely related to the stage. It is not difficult to see from the table, index rankings constitute a positive correlation between the strong and the per capita GDP. Relative to the GDP of average per capita fifty-second rankings, China's food safety level a few far beyond one of the wealthier countries society. In addition, the report points out, Greece became the ranking drop in developed countries, most (down 6), the main reason is involved in the economic downturn (GDP - 20%), this also from another side of the food security not break away from the economic base.

Individual events do not affect the overall level of quality and safety guarantee. A series of food safety incidents, the United States of America, some European countries have killed dozens of people in the past year, and even lead to serious trade dispute, but to measure a country's food security long-term comprehensive support capability is not materially influence. The food safety of individual events although cause international influence and the storm of public opinion is very big, but in the end did not, nor be masking the true level of food security.

City to improve food safety level in emerging economies. The report points out, the food safety level in some emerging economies are steadily improving, one important reason is the rapid development of city construction, city prompted the government to strengthen security work to meet the changing needs of city expansion, and at the same time, the relative concentration of the population has also brought the food supply mode change. China is currently promoting the formation of a development pattern of urbanization and agricultural modernization, coordinated, this also is expected to become the promotion of Chinese food security level among the important opportunity for the world.
