In short
- Plan for about 2,000–2,500 kcal per adult per day; children need roughly 50–70% of that.
- Store what you eat, eat what you store — your supply has to rotate.
- The core of any stockpile: grains, legumes, oil, sugar, salt, powdered milk and canned food.
- Keep it in a dark, dry and cool place, in closed containers, off the floor and away from radiators.
- Build it gradually: two weeks → three months → a year, with a small weekly budget.
