Abstract :
COVID-19 has affected every sector of the
domestic and global economy, of which the agricultural
sector is not left out. The pandemic has resulted in the
adoption of various approaches, including restriction of
movement, social distancing and lockdown of measures
to curb the spread of the virus. As a result, agricultural
activities were slowed down. The main goal was to
demonstrate the different ways in which the lockdown
and social distance measures have affected the grain
supply chain and the prospects of the grain sector during
and after the pandemic. The study used a qualitative
approach to determine the impact of COVID-19 on grain
production by analyzing secondary data. The impact of
the COVID-19 lockout on the global agriculture and
overall food system was also examined. The study
findings revealed the full magnitude of the pandemic's
impact and illuminated the argument over on-grain
production and food security in the future by identifying
the short-, medium-, and long-term impact of COVID-19
on grain production. The conclusion of this paper
outlined the future of grain production during and after
the pandemic of COVID-19.
