Food security therefore do not deal with production per se, rather the requirement of sufficient food for consumption. The current situation in South Africa is analysed, showing a movement from food self sufficiency. The first conclusion is that the food equation is currently not balanced. The importance of an economic viable “local food production” strategy is secondly argued. A changed institutional structure to manage food security and food policy is proposed
