The Geographic Analysis of the Ration Card System and Food Security for the Iraqi Population Wasit Governorate as a Model.

Abstract

Abstract

To provide food security, the ration card system is a vital component of the process. It works to deliver the most basic food items to the population, and the results of this system can be seen in the state's current food security condition. The study's objective is to characterize Iraq's ration card system and the stages it has though since the system's inception. Additionally, to identify the most significant barriers confronting this system in Iraq and the most significant characteristics of families in the province, which are represented in the family's demand for food and other necessities, and from here the relevance of research became clear. Using the Wasit governorate as a case study, the study looked at how the ration card system affects food security for Iraqi families. To meet the study's goals, the researchers concentrated on the theoretical and analytical aspects of the research.
