GCC agri-nutrients feed 5% of world’s population: GPCA

DUBAI — The GCC agri-nutrients industry supports the food supply of 5% of the world's population, or 350 million people across the globe, according to a new report published by the Gulf Petrochemicals and Chemicals Association (GPCA).This figure marks the rising importance of agri-nutrients in enhancing global food security in a rapidly changing world, where we will need to produce 70% to 100% more food by 2050 to feed our growing population.The findings were highlighted in a new report entitled ‘Role of Agri-Nutrients in Food Security' released on the occasion of World Food Day
