Summary: The article reveals the essence of the concept of "food security" and substantiates its fundamental role in ensuring the economic, and hence the national security of the state. There was a difference in the approaches to assessing the food security of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations and Ukraine. The assessment of the state of food security at the country level was carried out on the basis of the application of the “Methodology for determining the main indicators of food security” approved by the Resolution of the Kabinet of Ministers of 05.12.2007. The indicators of consumption adequacy for individual products were calculated and the conclusion was drawn on the imbalance of the population’s nutrition. It was established that the availability of food is limited, first of all, by low solvency of citizens. The results of the research in the dynamics proved that the domestic food market is little dependent on imported food products, with the exception of such food groups as “fish and fish products”, “fruits, berries and grapes”. It was proposed to supplement the list of food security indicators with such indicators as “the level of quality and food safety” and a list of indicators for its assessment. The need to improve the quality characteristics of food for the population was noted and the main reasons for the decrease in the quality of food.
