One of the most important issues facing the world today is a shortage of food and some think genetically modified food is a possible solution. To what extent do you agree or disagree?.

Malnutrition

due to

starvation is the biggest issue worldwide, particularly in developing nations. It is considered by some

people

that

this

problem can be overcome by altering production using genetic techniques. I strongly agree with the above view as I think

this

is the only way to boost crop yield, which can satisfy the growing population's

food

requirement. The opposer to

this

view might point out other solutions to the foodstuff shortage like reduction of meat wastage.

This

could help to feed a number of poor

people

who would not afford to buy

food

otherwise

, but

this

approach might be difficult to implement as it will need a lot of behaviour modification on an individual level;

For example

,

this

solution requires several earlier steps: prepares in low quantity, preserving unused

food

, donating to the organisation, and redistribution to needy. Another concern might be raised by some

people

is that the possible harmful effects

this

may cause upon the consumption of

such

food

on the human race. Mutating or introducing some genes of seeds does not mean that the future crop will possess deteriorating properties; To illustrate, a gala variety of apples gives more apples without causing any negative effects on its consumers. One of the major reasons why hybrid

food

is the definitive way to tackle the

food

shortage is that it can enhance crop yield dramatically.

This

is the root cause of ongoing starvation.

As a result

, producing a greater amount of grains and vegetables could alleviate the situation of meal shortage.

For instance

, a genetic mutation in peas can result in a 50 per cent higher harvest.

Furthermore

, genetics

also

enables us to have a shorter harvesting period without compromising quality.

Thus

, farmers can harvest it earlier and

can

have an additional farming season, which would result in a higher amount of total production in a defined period. In conclusion,

although

some

people

might be worried about the use of genes to tackle the lack of

food

in many parts of the world, I strongly believe that

this

is the best way to produce more

food

.

This

can solve the hunger problem by supplying

food

to the ever-growing human population in today's world.
