Food security is a common challenge for all developing nations, and small islands are no exception. In a broader sense, food security as defined by the FAO is ‘the ability of all people at all times to have both physical and economic assess to a sufficient amount of safe and nutritious food which meets their dietary needs and food preference for an active and healthy life’. This implies availability and stability of food supplies at the national level, and physical and economic accessibility of required food at the household level.
