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 developments in the agriculture sector, there still are
people
worldwide that suffer from
hunger
.
This
essay will explain the reasons for
this
issue and will underline some solutions to tackle
this
problem. On one hand, the difference between rich and poor
people
is very marked and known. Developed countries have control of the economy and the movement of
money
. In
this
way, where the economy can develop and increase, there is
money
that goes around. Agriculture is a basic need for
people
to eat and in wealthy places, it is possible to find
food
and even different kinds of it.
Instead
,
people
that live in poor places go hungry because they do not have enough
money
to buy them
food
and as a consequence, it is
also
hard to find it or it is very expensive.
For example
, it is common to see African citizens suffer from
hunger
because they do not have enough
money
to afford
this
necessity.
On the other hand
, many things could be done to tackle
this
problem.
First
of all,
people
should waste less
food
in the places where eating is affordable. Generally, everyone should consume less.
This
can help organisations and nations to distribute the
food
better, even for the
people
that can not sustain their lives.
For instance
, governments should co-operate and establish rules with which they can provide
food
for everyone, giving everybody the possibility to eat daily and sufficiently . In conclusion, while there are still many
people
that suffer from
hunger
, and
this
is because agriculture and
food
, in general, follow the economy, there are many ways to reduce, at least, world
hunger
, one of the main problems of these times. Governments should be more active in
this
issue and set rules that will include poorer
people
.
