According to the Resolution, food security (including food and foodstuff) has always been paid special attention and directed by the Party and State to ensure national food security both in the short term and in the long term.

Food and foodstuff production continues to develop; rice production increased from 39.17 million tons to 43.45 million tons, food averagely rose from 497 kg / person / year to over 525 kg / person / year, bringing Vietnam into the group of leading countries in foodstuff production; the output of meat of all kinds increased by 1.3 times, milk of all kinds rose by 3.36 times, eggs increased by 2.13 times; fishery output rose by 1.7 times. Undernutrition has been reduced to 10.8% in 2019; the People's living standards have been markedly improved, especially the rural people's income has increased by 3.65 times. Infrastructure system for production, circulation, and food reserve has been upgraded and modernized; distribution channels are constantly being expanded and perfected, improving production capacity, circulation and accessibility to food and foodstuff for the people.

However, the issue of food security in the country still has a number of limitations and weaknesses as follows: At times, there are places where the production is not under planning, leading to a partial surplus of food and affecting producers. The income of rice growers is still low, and the life of some people is still difficult. The organization of production, processing, trade, and assurance of food quality and safety still have many shortcomings. The stature and physical condition of the Vietnamese have been improved, but still slowly. Ensuring food security at the household level in some places is uncertain; the ability to access food diversely, timely and nutritiously remains a big challenge for people in remote, ethnic minority and mountainous areas.
