Global #Trends by BBVA: What is the next major threat to global food security?

Global food security is a top priority for political leaders regardless of national wealth, as history shows that its absence often leads to social unrest. As Vibhu Juneja, Managing Director of Food and Agribusiness at BBVA explains, maintaining food availability relies on three critical pillars: crops, livestock, and logistics. Today, this stability is challenged by spiking fertilizer costs, animal protein supply imbalances, and rising climate risks like a "super El Niño".

To address these evolving pressures and support a resilient global food system, BBVA supports client by providing specialized financing solutions and tailored advisory services for sustainable agriculture across key production and consumption regions worldwide.
