Abstract

The issue is considered adequate food distribution as of paramount importance and suggests checking a methodology based on mechanics of materials that contributes to the process of decision making. Food production has grown in many countries but the number of people has also increased and food distribution has not improved according to the increase of people and food. To all this it is that the food chain is now more vulnerable to environmental pollution day. The proposed methodology is based mainly on the establishment of measures necessary to ensure access to enough food in this chain of humanitarian logistics measures.
