The significance of food security for any state cannot be overemphasised as it is directly linked with the well-being of its people.

Some of these reasons include a growing population, gross neglect of the agriculture sector, mismanagement of water resources, lack of research for the development of requisite technologies to improve agricultural yields, and negative impact of climate change, among others.
