COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating effect on the global food production system. Large-scale food producing countries restricted exports for food sovereignty, while small and import-dependent countries are at risk. After COVID-19 pandemic, integrated and planned action is necessary to overcome this global stalemate. In this review paper, we have tried to show the damage caused to global agriculture as well as in Bangladesh due to COVID-19 pandemic. At the same time, the prospects and tasks of Bangladesh in the post-pandemic global economy have also been discussed. Due to the middlemen-based marketing system in Bangladesh, farmers have been deprived of their profits from the early period. The government should move forward with a long-term planning to find alternative food market such as processing and export alongside the one-way marketing system. On the other hand, it will benefit the farmers’ community of Bangladesh, as well as ensure global food security after this pandemic.

Livestock sector is also in a vulnerable condition. In Bangladesh there was a little research on the loses that has occurred during this pandemic in livestock sector. Our study was taken to focus on effect of cost benefit ratio during and before the pandemic COVID-19 of Black Bengal goat rearing of Bangladesh. A total of 70 farmers were randomly chosen. The primary data of socio-economic condition of the farmers and data for fixed and recurring cost was taken by a pretested questionnaire. The data was then analyzed to find out the differences between cost benefit analysis ratio before and during pandemic of COVID-19. The study showed that though per kg meat prize significantly increased during pandemic but most of the parameters for calculating cost benefit ration have been decreased significantly (p<0.05). As, a result the net income reduces almost half and one forth during pandemic. This finding indicates that Black Bengal goat farming has seriously affected by the pandemic.
