GCP measures the production value which may shape a county's food system. Food security not only carries significant benefits for human health, but also serves as the basis to achieve sustained economic growth.

Income inequality can be both a driver and a consequence of the food system. As a driver, inequality can play into food production systems, the food environment and individual factors that influence access to food. However, a food system can also contribute to income inequality through skewed distribution of the value of food across the supply chain (i.e.: producers assume more risk and less of the revenue than distributors or retailers).

GCP measures the production value which may shape a county's food system. Food

A higher household size means that there are more people to feed. Larger household sizes have been linked to higher probability of food insecurity.

Improvements in yield are a key driver of increases in national crop production and may also support broader economic development and poverty alleviation efforts. Higher cereal yields may also enable farming households to diversify into other crops or into off-farm employment.

Cold storage may reduce food losses and improve food quality, also incentivizing farmers to produce more perishable foods. However, cold storage requires a reliable source of electricity. Electricity may also improve other areas of Food supply chainss, including production and processing.

Iodine is an essential component of the hormones produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones, and therefore iodine, are essential for mammalian life. Iodine deficiency is a major public health problem; globally, it is estimated that two billion individuals have an insufficient iodine intake.
