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

Agriculture these days has become advanced enough to meet everyone’s demand due to the development in technology; still, many people around the world remain hungry. In my opinion, the cause of the issue might be related to the fact that many countries have been corrupted by their own governments.

However

, I

also

think that there are a few possible solutions for

this

problem

. The following paragraphs are my thoughts and consideration

on

this

topic. The main reason why people still go hungry might be caused by their own

government

. Some countries don’t actually face problems

such

as

food

not meeting the demand or the agriculture are not yet developed, but the issue that they are facing could be poverty as well as the way that the

government

manages and distributes national resources. These types of

problems mostly

problems, mostly

occur within the less economically developed countries.

For instance

, the infamous case of Blood Diamonds which happened in Africa: people are forced to mine diamonds, but they get little or nothing in return (highly unfair wages). Diamonds are obviously one of the valuable and lucrative resources that could be conveniently exchanged for

money

. Despite that, people in the country are extremely poor (as well as the country

generally except

generally, except

for the

government

) because they do not profit from the activity. Not only does

this

happen in Africa, people who live in countries like the Philippines or India

also

struggle with and suffer from hunger issues.

However

, there are still measures and policies that could be imposed to alleviate the

problem

. Obviously, governments need to step in and take earnest participation in tackling the

problem

which will eventually solve most of the issues.

However

,

that is

, pragmatically, impossible and every country will have their own specific solution; still, I am convinced the main solutions are as follows.

Firstly

, providing an adequate amount of

money

for the locals can be done by using the financial help from organisations that can ensure the donated

money

will be equally and justly allocated to the local people. If

this

is done properly and effectively, we can rest assured that these people will have at least some

money

to buy

food

and water.

Secondly

,

food

donation is

also

a great idea

besides

the financial help.

This

, again, will require support from an organisation that can share the donated

food

to the locals. In some areas,

money

might not be the most serious issue when there is an inadequate amount of

food

in the

first

place.

Lastly

, in my opinion the reason why people still go hungry even if agriculture has already been advanced enough to provide enough

food

for everyone is mainly because of the

government

. We can see that the developed countries don’t have

this

type of

problem

; even if they do, it is not as serious as the LEDCs.

This

is because they have a

government

that can actually efficiently manage their people both economically and financially unlike some of the governments in the LEDCs that are notoriously corrupt.

Therefore

, the solutions are as mentioned above:

food

and

money

. Still, donation seems to be the main one that actually works and is efficient.
