Abstract: COVID-19 has affected every sector of the domestic and global economy, of which the agricultural sector is not left out. The pandemic has resulted in the adoption of various approaches, including restriction of movement, social distancing and lockdown of measures to curb the spread of the virus. As a result, agricultural activities were slowed down. The main goal was to demonstrate the different ways in which the lockdown and social distance measures have affected the grain supply chain and the prospects of the grain sector during and after the pandemic. The study used a qualitative approach to determine the impact of COVID-19 on grain production by analyzing secondary data. The impact of the COVID-19 lockout on the global agriculture and overall food system was also examined. The study findings revealed the full magnitude of the pandemic's impact and illuminated the argument over on-grain production and food security in the future by identifying the short-, medium-, and long-term impact of COVID-19 on grain production. The conclusion of this paper outlined the future of grain production during and after the pandemic of COVID-19.
