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

#spite #advances #agriculture #people #world #case
It is true that the development of
agriculture
 has had significant
advances
 in many
countries
 all over the world but there are several
people
 who are facing famine day by day. In general, there are various solutions to tackle
this
 problem, and one of the ways is organizing more volunteering campaigns to share
food
 for starving
people
 and
also
 providing modern
agriculture
technology
 for poor
countries
. The main reason for
this
 situation is that the existing
advances
 made in
agriculture
 were mostly created and applied in developed
countries
.
Also
, the
advances
 made in
agriculture
 can raise the prices of foods since the cost when producing these foods is higher due to the application of modern
technology
 for
agriculture
.
Thus
, many poor
countries
 can not afford the amount of money that they have to spend to develop modern
agriculture
 technologies and facilities, which can lead to a lack of
food
 for their residents.
For example
, organic rice
such
 as the ST25 in Vietnam, which is developed in the laboratory by new genetic
technology
 is more expensive than normal rice,
therefore
 it is mainly being exported because average
people
 with a basic standard of living cannot eat it every day. Overall, I think that
this
 situation can be solved by making sure that all the residents globally can have an equal chance to have enough
food
. To achieve
this
, international organizations like UNICEF should have some policies or volunteering campaigns to apply agricultural
advances
 to supply
food
 for poor
countries
 and poor citizens. Developed
countries
 can share modern
technology
 in
agriculture
 with developing
countries
 to help them produce more
food
 for their residents. In recent years, Japan has shared with Vietnam about new technologies in
agriculture
 to grow rice that has better quality. In
this
 regard, the issue can only be resolved by applying the modern
agriculture
 system to provide more
food
 for hungry
people
 worldwide.
