The world’s food systems are at a breaking point. Farmland is shrinking due to unsustainable practices, food waste is skyrocketing amid global inequality, and climate change threatens harvests worldwide. But here in Singapore, the stakes are even higher.
With just 1% of land available for farming and over 90% of our food imported, we are dangerously vulnerable. Supply chain disruptions, geopolitical tensions, and environmental crises could leave us exposed. At the same time, our local farmers struggle to survive—caught between rising costs, limited space, and the urgent need for sustainable solutions.
This is not just a challenge—it’s an opportunity. Singapore has always defied the odds. Now, we must pioneer the future of food.
Introducing Singapore Farmer—Your Voice for a Sustainable Food Future
My name is Bernie, and together with my friend Shing Shian, we’re launching Singapore Farmer, an independent blog dedicated to reshaping how Singapore grows, eats and thrives.
We’re not here to just report—we’re here to ignite change.
- Deep Investigations – We go beyond headlines to uncover the real struggles and breakthroughs of local farmers.
- Sustainable Solutions – We spotlight innovations that balance economic survival with environmental responsibility.
- Community & Solidarity – Farmers shouldn’t fight alone. We’re building a movement to unite growers, policymakers, and consumers.
Singapore’s food security depends on the choices we make today. Will we remain at the mercy of global supply chains? Or will we take control, support our local farmers, and build a resilient, sustainable food system? Together, we won’t just adapt to the next agricultural revolution—we’ll lead it.
