Abstract: The main points of the food security concept in each of the countries that comprise the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) and in the EAEU as a whole entity were considered in this paper. The food security level in the EAEU countries was assessed according to various criteria, including the ranking of countries in the world by means of The Global Food Security Index. The consumption of basic food products in the EAEU was analyzed. The position of each of the EAEU countries was assessed by calculating the mutual trade intensity index in agricultural products and food among the EAEU. It is concluded that despite the sufficient level of food security in the EAEU countries, it is necessary to make further efforts to strengthen it, since constantly changing geopolitical and economic conditions pose new challenges to the agro-industrial complex. However, the agro-industrial complex of the EAEU countries has high potential to ensure a sufficient level of food security both in the regional and global markets.
