              5.3. COVID-19 pandemic and food security issues: causes and consequences


             Today, scientists, analysts, politicians, government officials and members of the public
         around the world are concerned about the socio-economic consequences of the coronavirus
         pandemic that humanity is experiencing. eliminate a heated discussion began about ways to
         achieve it.
             Because coronavirus nearly half the world's population has been quarantined to prevent
         it.  As  a result, large factories stopped and the transport and tourism industries stagnated.
         Unemployment, the decline of financial markets, in a word, a parallel reduction in aggregate
         demand and aggregate  supply in the  world  indicate that a  “unique” economic crisis is
         beginning. In turn, it is no secret that the corona virus is not only a biological virus, but also
         an economic virus. Even today, many are already feeling its blows. Consequently, the world
         is stuck between two herbs related to overcoming the biological virus and the economic virus.
              Experts from the World Health Organization warn that "this disease has not yet reached
         its peak. We must  be prepared for various emergency situations. It  is too early to ease
         quarantine measures," and Bloomberg stated that the total damage to the global economy due
         to the pandemic in two years will be 5 trillion. notes that the US dollar is at risk of falling into
         a deep depression for the first time in the world.
             Executive Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Crystal Georgieva said
         2020 will be a year of sharp economic contraction, with 170 countries expected to experience
         negative economic growth per capita. Even in 2021, the global economic recovery remains in
         serious doubt. Against the crisis of the country of the world 8 trillion Fiscal and monetary
         measures equivalent to the US  dollar were introduced. According to him,  the scale of the
         expected global economic downturn has not been observed since the 30s of the last century.
             Currently, to mitigate the damage to the global economy, the IMF  1 trillion in dollar
         terms "security" pillow". It is difficult to estimate how much damage the global economy will
         suffer until the coronavirus pandemic reaches its peak. But it is clear that the pressure of the
         crisis on the economy will be high and 3-4 years will be lost for its recovery.
             Also, according to new forecasts published by the International Monetary Fund for
         2020, the global economy is expected to contract by 3% this year as a result of the pandemic
         in its base case scenario. This is 6.3 percentage points lower than the forecast announced in
         January of this year. If the fight against the virus drags on and lockdowns continue into the
         second half of the year, they fear the global economy could shrink by 6 percent.
             Experts from international organizations and influential analysts have confirmed that a
         recession in the global economy is inevitable due to the COVID-19 pandemic and They claim
         that this recession is the “mother” of all recessions in world history.
             No matter how much humanity advances and claims dominion over the world, it will
         face a test from the Creator. Anyway weak. On top of that, he is helpless in the face of an
