Pour sa part, la souveraineté alimentaire est un concept qui s'adresse aux États et vise à privilégier l'alimentation de la population nationale. Elle permet à chaque État d'être responsable de son alimentation et de définir sa politique alimentaire en tenant compte de ses propres spécificités sociales et culturelles. Elle protège aussi l'agriculture intérieure contre les importations à des prix inférieurs aux coûts de la production locale.
