Abstract
The article analyzes the causes and development trends of geo-economic fragmentation. It evaluates
the impact of this fragmentation on food security, identifying the main factors contributing to food security
challenges. Conceptual challenges and empirical trends are identified in this direction. It also examines how
individual countries engage in food trade interventions and assesses their political-economic behavior. Furthermore,
the progress of the deglobalization process is analyzed. Conclusions are drawn, and recommendations
have been developed to ensure global food security.
