NEW YORK, Jan. 25 (Xinhua) -- China plays an important role in global food security, U.S. World Grain magazine has reported.
All countries have vowed to make domestic food security a top priority, but no country has been more committed to this goal in recent years than China, the report said.
Already a major producer of corn and wheat and the perennial leader in soybean imports, China over the years has continued to increase the imports of those commodities, which gives it a comfortable surplus to feed its 1.4 billion people, it noted.
