1. Influences on food availability (weeks1-2)

Did you know that you can buy a McDonald’s hamburger in Russia, but not in Iran or Rwanda? Take a minute to think about why this might be the case. For most of us, food availability is fairly simple - you just go to a shop and buy it. However, it is not always that simple. In this chapter, we will look at social, economic and political influences on food availability, and advances in technology that make many foods available, even out of season. We will also look back to a time when food wasn’t always readily available.

Staple foods around the globeThe type and amount of food that people eat depends upon a variety of factors. Where people live is important because food produced in the local area will be more plentiful and cheaper than food transported long distances. Available income to buy food is another major factor affecting what people eat, along with the level of technology available in producing and processing food; government policies concerning local industry and imports; and the strength of the country’s economy.

The diet of most cultural groups is based on a staple food. A staple food is ___________________________________________________________________

Staple foods supply the major part of a diet. They are cheap, readily available in large quantities and provide the main source of energy in a group’s diet. Most cultures have at least one staple food basic to the diets of many people.

Staple plant foods

Wheat is the staple crop eaten in more countries of the world than any other staple. Growing conditions for wheat vary depending on the variety of wheat, but most varieties prefer cool, wet conditions during the growing season and warm, dry conditions during ripening.

Examples of wheat products:

Rice is the staple food of Asia and, given the high population density within the Asian nations, it is the most commonly eaten staple in the world. It needs a warm climate and large quantities of water in which to grow. Fields are flooded to allow the rice to grow in water, and flat land and a clay-based soil is needed for this process to be really effective.

Examples of rice products and the different countries that consume rice

Throughout Australia's history, each arrival of large groups of people resulted in increased food availability because each group introduced, grew and prepared the familiar foods of their homeland.

their homeland?______________________________________________________

Since 1830 large groups of people have migrated to Australia bringing their staple food preferences and their traditional methods of preparing food. After several generations, the national dishes of various cultures have become part of the overall Australian cuisine. Most people in migrant cultures are not first-generation migrants, but have parents or grandparents who were born overseas.

function to its full capacity. It is more susceptible to disease and has greater difficulty fighting infections and regaining optimum health. The body’s energy levels are lowered as a result of the continual infections and insufficient food.

Consequently, an individual’s ability to complete physically demanding work such as ploughing and sowing crops is greatly reduced. In the subsistence economies of developing countries, such physical incapacity means that the year’s food supply is greatly reduced. This chain of events is referred to as the poverty cycle.

Draw in the poverty cycle below:

The poverty cycle describes the situation in which a person or a group of people have insufficient money to buy healthy food.

The influence of the Australian government on food availabilityAustralia is a small but multicultural country. Given our relatively small population, it would be impossible for our food industry to produce the variety of foods on our supermarket shelves and still be economically viable. To cater for the food preferences of our varied population we import products from all over the world. Almost any food you wish to eat can be purchased here in Australia, as long as it complies with our food safety standards.

Protection can be defined _____________________________________________

Many of us select food that is nutritious because we know that we will feel and stay healthy. The food we eat should provide essential nutrients that the body can absorb, and metabolise (be used by the cells in the body for energy, building or repair).

Have a look at your eating habits. Do you eat a healthy nutritious diet?___________
