Food Market Transformation and Food Security in Asia: Emerging Trade and
Value Chain Linkages with Special Reference to Dragon and Elephant
Kevin Chen International Food Policy Research Institute
Food Security - a dinner table with 4
inter-dependent legs
a) Leg 1 is “availability” from raising farm production/productivity
b) Leg 2 is “access” from raising household incomes to buy food
c) Leg 3 is “access” to food by raising efficiency of market supply chains to deliver food to consumers
d) Leg 4 is raising “utility” of food by raising food safety/quality/nutrition
Source: Reardon and Chen 2011
Food Security - a dinner with two important courses
a) Course 1 – Rice • About 50% of consumer
calories • Only about 10% of
consumer spending on food
• Rice/Agriculture (1980-2008): East Asia: 19%8%; South Asia: 20% 15%; Southeast Asia: 40% 32%
Per capita rice consumption growth negative or trending negative
b) Course 2 - Food-beyond-rice such as vegetables, meat, and fish
• About 50% of consumer calories
• About 90% of their protein & vitamins
• About 92% of agriculture in East Asia, 85% in South Asia, and 68% in Southeast Asia.
• About 4 times more income/ha to farmers than rice

Rapid Transformation on Asian Agri-Food Sectors: Driving Forces • Rapid economic growth • Increasing urbanization • New Technologies • Accelerated integration into the
world market

Extremely Rapid Urbanization
• 50% in urban areas by 2011, rising fast • South Korea did in 2 decades (1970-1990)
what US did in 9 decades • 75% of the ASEAN food economy in urban
areas that market is growing 5-7 times faster than OECD food markets
big opportunity for income growth (thus food security from market access) for farmers
Rising Importance of Post-farmgate Segments of Agrifood Supply Chain
• Post-farmgate have developed to become 50-80% of the formation of the food price. Yet the debate focuses mainly on farm productivity.
• In Asia, wholesale/logistics, processing and food retail have VERY quickly transformed in the past 10-20 years – the fastest in the world, in history
increases in efficiency of wholesale/logistics, processing, and retail would have as much impact on food security
Food Processing and Distribution • Huge investment by domestic and foreign, following FDI
liberalization in 1990s/2000s. – Example: Thailand’s CP creates largest shrimp
farm/processing in world in Indonesia • “Supermarket revolution” in ASEAN & China, also
starting India – For just top 47 chains in China, 13 billion USD in 2001,
92 billion USD in 2009 • Rapid concentration & multi-nationalization of food
processing and retail – integration of the Asian food economy
FDI Inflows - Asia
Source: UNCTAD
• In 2010, FDI inflows to
South, East and South-East
Asia rose 24 percent, to $300
billion
• In 2010, FDI to East Asia
rose to $188 billion, due to
growing inflows to Hong Kong
(32%) and mainland China
(11%)
FDI Outflows - Asia • FDI outflows from South, East and South East Asia rose by 20 percent to about $230 billion in 2010, driven by increased outflows from China, Hong Kong, Malaysia, etc. • Hong Kong and China are the two largest FDI outflows sources -increased by more than $10 billion each and reached historic highs of $76 billion and $68 billion, respectively.

Food Trade • Only about 5% of the food economy of ASEAN is
traded, similar or less in South Asia and China • Trade is only 10-20% as important as the
modernizing food market inside ASEAN urban areas
• But the fastest growth (and the future) is INTRA-ASIAN trade and competition
Big opportunity, but also competition i.e. 30% of vegetables and 70% of fruit in Indonesian
supermarkets from Thailand and China

Issue and Challenge
• The future of China, India, Asia and the World economy: Fierce Competition or shared growth?
• Accelerated growth in China and India may create opportunities for some and threaten others and the outcomes may differ depending on the reform on the way
• Opportunity for mutual learning
Who will Feed the D&E in the Future?
• Will the D&E able to feed themselves in 2030 or 2050 in the face of rising population, rapid urbanization and limited land and water resources? In the face of Climate change?
• Will Brazil be in a position to feed the D&E? Will Africa be?
The approach of Indian and China is as inexorable as ever – they are intertwining with the West quietly and quickly. The rest of the world cannot avoid the changes they will bring. The only thing to do is face them, and adjust. - Robyn Meredith in 2007
