新加坡寻求通过屋顶农场增加本地粮食产量
(2). Officials in the city-state recently set a goal to meet 30 percent of Singapore’s nutritional needs with locally produced food by 2030.

(3). The plan includes $21 million in government money to support local production of eggs, vegetables and fish "in the shortest possible time."
该计划包括提供2100万美元政府资金,“在最短时间内”支持鸡蛋、蔬菜和鱼类的本地生产。
(4). The plans were announced as the worldwide spread of COVID-19 has caused shortages of many products, including food in some areas. Restrictions on population movements around the world have weakened supply chains and raised concerns about worsening shortages and price increases.
宣布该计划是因为新冠肺炎在世界范围内的传播已经导致了许多产品短缺,包括某些地区的食品短缺。对全球人口流动的限制削弱了供应链,并引发了人们对短缺加剧以及价格上涨的担忧。
(5). Currently, densely populated Singapore produces only about 10 percent of its own food needs. Only 1 percent of Singapore’s 724 square kilometers is currently used for agriculture. And production costs there are higher than the rest of Southeast Asia.
目前,人口稠密的新加坡所生产的粮食仅能满足其自身需求的10%。新加坡724平方公里的土地中目前只有1%用于农业。而且那里的生产成本高于东南亚其它地区。
(6). Singapore’s Food Agency says its goal is to raise local food production levels to make up for climate change and population growth that could threaten worldwide food supplies.
新加坡食品局表示,其目标是提高当地粮食产量,以弥补可能威胁全球粮食供应的气候变化和人口增长。
(7). "The current COVID-19 situation underscores the importance of local food production, as part of Singapore’s strategies to ensure food security," the Food Agency said in a statement.
新加坡粮食局在一份声明中表示:“目前的新冠肺炎形势凸显了本地粮食生产的重要性,这是新加坡确保粮食安全战略的一部分。”
(8). Singapore officials have repeatedly told citizens that the city-state has enough food to get through the COVID-19 crisis. But they have decided to speed up the process of increasing local production to begin within the next six months.
新加坡官员一再告知市民,这个城市国家有足够食物度过新冠肺炎危机。但是他们决定在未来6个月内开始加快提升本地粮食产量的过程。
(9). This plan includes efforts to identify alternative farming spaces, such as industrial areas and empty building spaces. It also calls for adding new technologies to improve farming methods.
该计划包括努力寻找替代性耕种空间,例如工业区和空置建筑空间。它还呼吁加入新技术以改善耕作方式。
