In spite of the advances made in agriculture, many people around the world still go hungry. Why is this case? What can be done about this problem?

Despite the development made in the field of agriculture, many people suffer starvation all over the world.

This

essay will discuss two problems responsible for

this

deprivation of

food

; corruption and

population

growth. The solutions to these problems can be

diminishing

Suggestion

diminished

food

wastage and taking measures to control

population

that would be highlighted in

this

essay. One of the reasons of people suffering from extreme hunger can be excessive production of

food

at the restaurants, which is

also

a kind of corruption.

This

is because of the poor

food

management system.

For example

, according to a report published in the University of Manchester, 40% of

food

in the world is squandered.

Secondly

, the

population

of the world has

also

escalated dramatically, whereas, the production of the

food

has not increased

accordingly

.

For instance

, the

Food

and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) forecasts that global

food

production will need to increase by 70% if the

population

reaches 9.1bn by 2050.

Thus

, these problems result in the shortage of

food

irrespective of the improvement made in agriculture. In order to mitigate these issues, the government should start a campaign on how to quantify and characterise major

food

waste streams and manage

population

growth. By gaining awareness of public policy issues that impact society and making change happen through the formation of public policy, professionals in the field of nutrition can improve the health and well-being of the nation. To illustrate

this

, a research conducted at the University of Alberta showed that 60% of customers in the restaurants have minimized the

food

wastage after attending the public awareness programs.

Therefore

, the government can play a major role in helping to eliminate

this

problem. To conclude,

although

agricultural industry makes progress day by day, people are still deprived of basic necessities

such

as

food

. The major reasons behind

this

issue are wastage of

food

and rapid growth in

population

. It has been discussed in

this

essay how these problems can be solved by arranging public awareness raising campaigns.
