Feeding Our Future

Climate change means more global food disruptions. With over 90% of our food imported, Singapore is vulnerable to global food supply fluctuations. Ensuring a supply of safe food is then a matter of national security. Local production can help to buffer the impact of overseas supply disruptions on our food supply.

Singapore’s “30 by 30” Vision

Alongside other efforts such as import diversification, Singapore is working towards “30 by 30” – to build our agri-food industry’s capability and capacity to produce 30% of our nutritional needs by 2030. The aim is to transform our local agri-food industry into a productive, climate-resilient and resource-efficient one.

Lim Chu Kang Master Plan

We have embarked on a holistic master planning of Lim Chu Kang (LCK) to develop it into a productive and sustainable agri-food hub. We hope to encourage the adoption of technology and “best-in-class” practices in meeting future farming needs, such as:

• Efficient waste management
• Harnessing renewable energy such as solar photovoltaic technologies
• Stacked farming typologies to optimise land use

LCK will also balance the needs of future developments while preserving existing ecology and nature areas.
