Analýza vývoje světové potravinové produkce

Bachelor thesis focuses on the analysis of the development of world food production. The aim of the thesis is to identify and describe regional disparities in food production and agricultural production, which are caused mainly by climatic conditions, suitability of available land and indirectly by economic factors such as oil price and food prices. The thesis analyzes the historical and future development of food production from a global and local point of view, the threat of the food crisis and its possible impacts, protectionist measures and especially the trend of food production in connection with the demographic development. Based on the analysis of the information obtained from relevant sources predominantly in English, it is clear that the volume of food produced has a growing trend and the increase in food production exceeds the consumption of the growing world population. However, food is unevenly distributed and, as a result, local unavailability occurs, affecting particularly the least developed countries in the world. In order to avert the imminent food crisis, effective cooperation between developed and developing countries is needed, as well as improvement of the international coordination of food production and reduction of the protectionist measures that individual countries apply.
