Abstract
Food Security is one of the critical issues in homeland security. Just as the infrastructure, electric grid, or Internet, it is the primary responsibility of homeland security authorities to protect the food we grow from any eventuality that will hurt the consumer, be it a direct act of contamination or an unintended side effect of a production practice. This research deals with the latter in a long-term historical aspect, demonstrating that protective measures must be undertaken now to prevent considerable damage to food supply later.
