This research explores the Determinant of Food Security in Developing Countries of Asia. It reviews the impact of the factors include population density, carbon emission, cultivation area, trade openness and research & development on determinants of Food Security in developing countries of Asia which provides the basis for this study. Data for the analysis was gathered from the World Development Indicator and Food and Agriculture Organization for the years 2009 to 2022. The article compares two regression models to analyze the data, including the Fixed Effect Model, and Random Effect Models. The article compares the fixed Random Effect Model and The Hausman Test have been used to interpret the results in this article. The Hausman Test have been used to predict that Random Effect is better than the Fixed Effect. The dimension - food availability is negatively affected by Cultivation Area, Carbon Emissions and Trade Openness and positively affected by population density and Research & Development. And the dimension- food accessibility is negatively affected by Carbon Emissions and Trade Openness and positively affected by Cultivation Area, Population density and Research & development in developing countries of Asia.
