Examining The Impact Of Climate Change And Economic Growth On Food Security: Evidence From The G-7 Countries

Résumé: The current study aims to analyses how climate change and economic growth influence food security. To this end, this paper utilizes a panel Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) approach and causality analyses on the G-7 countries from 1970 to 2021. In the long run, both economic growth and mean temperature have a significant negative impact on food security, while precipitation has a positive but statistically insignificant impact. Whereas, short run analyses, showed that mean temperature has a negative but statistically insignificant impact on food security, mean precipitation has a negative and significant influence on food situation, and economic growth positively influences the food security. Based on these findings, several policies implications are suggested to mitigate the negative effect of climate variation on food situation in the G-7 nations.
