Food security is an existential issue for Singapore. As a globally connected small city-state with limited resources, Singapore is vulnerable to external shocks and supply disruptions. The government started leasing out the unusual plots in 2020 as part of its plans to increase local food production. The country of 5.5m people currently imports more than 90% of its food. But space in this densely populated island nation is scarce and that means land is not cheap. Singapore has some of the world’s most expensive property. Singapore is quite small but we have many car parks. It is pretty much the dream to have farms [here] to meet the needs of residents in the community. Do you think that developing nations need to adopt the Singapore’s method to feed its people sustainably ?
