Namibia is not fully self-sufficient in food production, as it relies on both domestic agriculture and imports to meet the needs of its population. While the country has a significant agricultural sector, challenges such as drought, limited arable land, and economic factors impact its ability to produce enough food. Consequently, Namibia often imports staple foods, especially grains, to fill the gap in local production. Efforts are ongoing to enhance food security and increase self-sufficiency through sustainable agricultural practices.

Food security is the availability of food for the populace, it's where people do not live with hunger or face starvation.
In agriculture sector the production of crop yield that is just sufficient for human consumption has no surplus for free market or as buffer stock. With technological application as inputs for agricultural production the crop yield is beyond the self sufficiency level. Such yield is called surplus food. In common usage , any production of food in excess of the number of people for consumption of the produced food is termed as surplus food.

The self-reliance ratio in agriculture is calculated by dividing a country's agricultural production by its agricultural consumption. This ratio indicates the extent to which a nation can meet its food needs through domestic production rather than relying on imports. A self-reliance ratio greater than 1 suggests that a country produces more than it consumes, while a ratio less than 1 indicates reliance on imports to satisfy consumption demands. This metric helps assess food security and the sustainability of agricultural practices within a country.
total production - self consumption = market surplus
