Summary/Abstract: The food crisis in Afghanistan, deepened by the Covid-19 Pandemic and intensified after the Taliban administration took power, has become a serious problem for the Afghan people. Struggling with the cycle of hunger caused by poverty and hunger, it is difficult for Afghanistan to break this cycle with its economic structure in need of foreign aid. Because in the last twenty years, it has been seen that an economic structure that cannot form and operate its own wheels cannot eliminate the problems indicated only by foreign aid. In this study, the food problem, which has been an economic and social problem in Afghanistan for years and has recently reached the crisis stage, will be analyzed.
