In spite of the advances made in agriculture, many people around the world still go hungry

Agriculture is the most important sector in the

world

because it’s providing

food

for all the population of the

world

, which nowadays has become an integral part of countries national security policy, and they name it “

food

security”. Despite technological advancement in the agriculture sector, a large segment of the

world

population is facing severe

food

shortages. In my opinion, the main

reason

for declining in

production

worldwide is climate change, which is affecting the whole

world

. Another possible

reason

is the

use

of

chemicals

to get more

production

from less

land

, which diminishes the properties of the fertile

land

.

First

, elaborate a little bit on climate change which is the main

reason

for the decline in the

production

of

crops

. As we know that due to a rise in the average temperature of the

world

, the weather pattern is changing all around the

world

, which is causing very little rainfall or in excess which is not good for different main

crops

like grain, rice, and cotton. So,

as a result

, the supply to the countries which are not producing these

crops

is being affected which is causing hunger in some counties.

Furthermore

, due to an increase in the transportation cost the prices of these essential

food

items are skyrocketed, especially

for example

after the Covid-19 crisis the supply chain of foods has been affected very badly.

Hence

poor counties are not able to import these items to meet the growing demand from their population. The

second

reason

which is important than any other is the

use

of harmful

chemicals

, which is destroying the fertility of the

land

and

thus

affecting

food

production

.

In addition

, it’s

also

causing chronic diseases like cancer. blood pressure and many others.

For example

, in our country cancer has become very widespread in all age groups, which is caused by the

use

of

chemicals

in growing

crops

. So, what’s is the solution? The answer is to stop the

use

of harmful

chemicals

, which are not only affecting people’s health but

also

decreasing the fertility of the

land

. Governments around the

world

should plant trees to minimize the effects of climate change. To summarize, The

world

must act to resolve the issues which are causing hunger despite technological advancements.
