USDA Agri-Food Supply Chain Assessment: Program and Policy Options for Strengthening Resilience
United States. Department of Agriculture
From the Introduction: "As a nation, we are fortunate to have a highly productive agricultural system, a vigorous private agribusiness sector, extensive infrastructure, and supportive public policies and institutions that together work to provide a dependable, affordable, and diverse food supply. However, recent events - especially the COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] pandemic and the on-going pandemic recovery -- have revealed serious cracks in this system. Addressing these vulnerabilities to strengthen the resilience of our country's agri-food supply chains is what this report is about. [...] Throughout this report, most of the proposed recommendations to address vulnerabilities focus on this second, longer-term timeframe as a path forward to achieve much needed resiliency."
