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?
It has been observed that many people across many countries do not get enough
food
supply despite the technological advancement in the agriculture
sector. This
essay will discuss the reasons for this
development which include an increase in the rate of the population
around the world. It will also
suggest solutions that the government
can follow to overcome this
issue.
The increasing population
is the major reason for this
problem. The population
is increasing at a tremendous rate compare to food
production globally, as a result
, produced material is not sufficient for the population
. For instance
, India’s population
has rapidly increased after independence but agricultural production is not growing at the same percentage in spite of the development in the agriculture
method. Furthermore
, due to overpopulation, the employment rate is low; as a result
of this
people do not have enough money to buy food
grain for their family. Thus
it can be said that access population
can create a direct impact on the agriculture
sector.
In order to tackle this
concern, there could be two possible solutions. Firstly
, the government
can import grain from other countries with access grains; this
will balance the distribution of food
. For example
, if Europe is producing more coffee then
it can be imported to Russia where there is less coffee production. Secondly
, governments can grant subsidiaries to the state government
to distribute enough food
to citizens who fall in the less income category. Therefore
by implementing the above-suggested solutions, the problem of food
scarcity can be controlled.
To conclude, despite the new innovation in the agriculture
industry, people around the world face scarcity of food
majorly due to the ever-increasing population
. However
, such
an issue can be controlled if the government
take necessary measures to prevent this
issue.Submitted by Mamta on
