Abstract
Qatar is one of the richest countries in the world. However, its domestic food production is so low that over 90 percent of its food supply has to be imported. This article provides some stylised facts on Qatar’s food security, including the effects of the June 2017 blockade on food supply. It also offers some insights on how to shore up Qatar’s food security in the future.
