Abstract
Hunger and poverty increase day by day all around the world. Thus, concept and evaluation of food security is getting important. Becoming true of food security depends on to provide the all dimensions (food availability, food access, utilization and stability) of food security at the same time. The aim of this study is to evaluate food security of European Union-27 by using official secondary data. Although there are 28 member countries in the European Union, it was not possible to discuss the topic as EU-28 since most of the data covers the period before 2011 and Croatia has become a member of the EU in 2011. Turkey is candidate for nomination for being a member of EU for the long duration. Therefore, it has been important to look at the European Union-27’s food security conditions. Because of this, even the title is about EU, some comparison have been done between Turkey and EU-27 to show differences and similarities. As a result of this study, it is possible to say that, even the European Union-27’s present conditions of food security are better than Turkey, neither Turkey nor European Union-27 have not been provided food security about the all dimensions.
Keywords: European Union, Turkey, food security, dimensions of food security, food safety.
