The 7th AFMA Symposium in Mongolia See: 몽골중동학회 MAMES International Conference
Now I'd like to introduce diges of my paper that ever read in the symposium in the title of "Food Security and Water Resources in the Middle East". My paper consisted of five parts: 1. Forward, 2. The Characteristics of Food, Security, Crisis and Weapon, 3. Food Prices and Crisis in the Middle East, 4. Water Resources and Water Crisis in the Middle East, and 5. Concluding Remark. The forthcoming world seems to change uncertainly. It will depend on various kinds of war and crisis in the world. Considering present hike in agricultural market that is linked with oil price, War will develop as water war rather than oil war and crisis will appear as a weapon that is food crisis rather than oil crisis. In this context, the Middle East Arab countries and African countries will play a great role in the process of changing world order. They have huge energy resources and agricultural potential, though they are suffering from starvation. The change of weather will also play a role to develop their agricultural industry with the improvement of water scarcity. Food is an essential material for human subsistence. Hence economic development in one country must be based on the basis of self-sufficiency of food. Now the advanced countries transformed into food -exporting countries. On the contrary underdeveloped countries have pursued export-oriented industry policy to catch up with modernization of industrialized countries. As a result, the former food-export countries as an agricultural state fell into food-import countries. The Middle East and African countries are typical examples. Traditionally these countries were agricultural stated in the long history of the world. Now these states have faced with serious problem of starvation, insufficient food, scarce of water following poor harvest, drought along with high price of oil and food. Leaders of some Arab and African countries have faced with challenge to political power. The only way to solve food problem in the Middle East is to develop agricultural industry and secure sufficient water supply by introducing advanced new technology under the support of international help and aid.
