COVID-19 Impacts on Agriculture and Food Security
Abstract: COVID-19 and lockdown originally had the effect that the shift in demand curve to the left resulted in "leveling off" the prices of agricultural produce. The reason for this was not the lack of demand due to rising prices. The reason for this was that due to their consumption being limited to homes and lack of workers, most companies were forced to reduce production in their factories. The coronavirus pandemic …
