The Production Safety Strategies for Enhancing Food Quality Through Ecological Imperatives in the Context of National Security

Abstract

The purpose of the article is to identify key ecological imperatives that affect the environment by changing the rules for food quality standardization. The object of the study is the Polish environment. The scientific challenge is to identify the most significant ecological imperatives and propose a new strategic approach to responding to them at the national level. To do this, the research methodology involves the use of a survey method of leading experts and scientists in the field of ecology and food security to determine these imperatives. A method for solving problems through ranking and a synthesis method for building the model itself. As a result of the study, the most significant ecological imperatives were identified that affect the environment in such a way that they change the rules for standardizing the quality of food products. A model of response priority and ecological imperatives was constructed. Four different government-level strategies are proposed to respond to the impacts of specific ecological imperatives. The main results of the study are presented in the form of a model of how to correctly operate and organize environmental imperatives in the context of building the right security strategies. Practical application is possible in the system of ensuring national food security. The study is limited by considering the environment of only one country. Prospects for further research should concern not only ecological imperatives, but also technogenic ones.
