Nowadays many people believe that inspite 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?

These days, it is a general perception in the public, that regardless of the technological achievements in the

agriculture

sector, we can't address the global hunger issue. The notable reason which led to

this

dilemma is the ownership of vast agricultural lands and resources by

food

companies.

Although

these companies in return help poor and destitute

people

to fight hunger,

this

effort is like peanuts to address

this

global crisis.

This

essay will dive into the causes of

food

shortage and efforts in

this

regard.

Firstly

, renowned

food

outlets nowadays, are purchasing lands of critical importance in order to produce

food

for wealthy nations.

Therefore

,

this

results in making

destitue

destitute

people

's lives miserable who are leaving them with barren lands that are not suitable for

agriculture

.

For example

, Coca-Cola and Nestle have their production plants near water reservoirs, which results in utilizing all the reservoir water for their own purpose and pushing

people

to use their products as the leftover water is of not good quality.

In other words

, these business tycoons are responsible for creating hunger for their own profitability.

Secondly

, contrary to

this

, these companies invest some of their resources in

agriculture

-friendly, health-beneficial programs to create a delusion that they are not the real culprits for

this

food

scarcity issue.

Moreover

, a hectic amount of money is invested in research programs to improve

agriculture

.

For instance

, Nestle alone is investing multi-million dollars in the improvement of the

agriculture

sector to save their billion-dollar industry undercover. So: all these

instead

of helping the common man, result in the suffering of common

people

who are forced to purchase expensive

food

or remain hungry.

To conclude

, our agricultural techniques no doubt result in better

food

production these days, but

food

giants are snatching all these benefits, resulting in a more difficult life for general

people

.

Furthermore

, the resulting efforts are not beneficial to overcome

this

global issue.
