The projections of food insecurity are devastating. However, I have found reassurance in seeing how the global food system showed tremendous resilience in such adversity. We saw many actors rising to the occasion to become food heroes. These were ordinary people such as farmers, transporters, grocery store owners, restaurant managers who worked around the clock, adjusted nimbly to difficult challenges, and demonstrated that every part of the food value chain is essential to a sustainable and resilient food system.<\/p>\n<p>Without them, the story would have been different and we most likely would have had a food crisis in addition to the current health crisis.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-990\" src=\"https:\/\/emergingag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/b2ap3_small_image-asset.png\" width=\"250\" height=\"173.5\" align=\"right\" data-style=\"clear\" srcset=\"https:\/\/emergingag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/b2ap3_small_image-asset.png 320w, https:\/\/emergingag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/b2ap3_small_image-asset-300x208.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/>Throughout, innovation has really shone through.\u00a0 I am thrilled to be moderating a great panel of leaders from the farm all the way to urban gardening programs at this year\u2019s<a href=\"https:\/\/www.agritecture.com\/xchange-program\"> Agritecture Xchange<\/a>.\u00a0 Please register to hear their inspiring stories.<\/p>\n<p>I am proud to be part of a sector that has shown such a persistent spirit. It is dedicated to providing the most valuable product we all need &#8211; food &#8211; and bred creativity at every level.\u00a0 We witnessed brilliant innovation from food production, to food processing and manufacturing, to even the meals people make right at the consumption end. After all, necessity is the mother of invention.<\/p>\n<p>As a result, the respect people had for the food and agriculture industry has grown in leaps and bounds. The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodintegrity.ca\/about\/who-we-are-2\/\"> Canadian Centre for Food Integrity (CCFI)<\/a>, a national charity whose mandate is to help Canada\u2019s food system earn public trust by coordinating research, resources, and dialogue, reported that the level of confidence that Canadians have in the food system has gone up by 12% compared to last year in their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foodintegrity.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ENG2020Summit-Research-HR-new.pdf\">2020 Public Trust Research Report<\/a>.
