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

Since the inception of civilization,

uman being has been dependent on agriculture as it provides

food

, and for that reason, mankind devotes significant resources to develop the process of farming. In recent time, there is substantial progress has been observed in

this

aspect, but still, a major portion of people around the world remain starving. From my point of view, the faulty

market

mechanism is responsible for

this

issue and could be solved by the co-operation of the related parties. Basically, the

food

market

is comprised of the farmer- the initial producer and buyer, albeit international bodies, local government, intermediaries and some other beneficial groups disrupt and manipulate the

market

for their gain.

As a result

, the primary seller, who works day and night to grow crops, does not receive proper benefit, whereas end-consumers have to pay the extra price to purchase

food

.

For example

, in many developing countries, farmers very often go on protest for not getting enough money necessary to lead their life, while a lion share of the population in those countries observe famine-like situation because of the high price of

food

.

Thus

, dysfunctional

market

operation, reflected in the supply chain process, is the pivotal reason for

this

circumstance. Interruption of the external forces to the

market

should be erased significantly, not only in the local arena but

also

on the global scale to free the world from hunger.

Furthermore

, all the countries should come with each other and co-operate in

this

subject by moderately ignoring their benefits.

For instance

, few countries like the USA are known for massive growth and surplus of wheat, which can easily be exported to the countries experiencing famine, rather than wasting it to make the price of the crop higher in the global

market

.

Therefore

, stakeholders, if they will, can resolve the conundrum of

food

shortage. To conclude, the existing problematic structure of the

market

has always been looming before us, but we have not been able to address it notably while the solution might not be any behemoth task to do.
