Recently the whole world has faced a global food crisis (GFC). We propose to call such a problem an "emergent problem". An emergent problem is characterized by: i) It has several reasons not just one. ii) It cannot be solved locally (e.g., by one country) hence "collective efforts" are required. iii) It needs a long time to be solved, hence evolutions in strategies and conditions have to be taken into consideration.
