About 1,000 million people in the world currently live under the so-called "Absolute
Poverty", that is, with an income of less than one dollar a day, and most of these suffer from "chronic hunger". In developing countries, one in every four children suffers from a "wasting state" (or being underweight). In the poorest countries among these developing countries, half of their children (one in two children) suffer from a state of "wasting" and the disease for such children poses great risks as many of them do not reach adulthood, and the causes of death for more than half of the children in developing countries are due to Malnutrition.
As for those who live to adulthood, they face a future often characterized by hunger, homelessness, ignorance and unemployment, and hunger is not a phenomenon or a natural state, i.e. produced by nature, but a condition that results from human action (or the lack and lack of this work). In a world that can produce enough and more food for every human being, the root cause of hunger lies in poverty. Among the things that draw attention and amazement together is that 80% of the children who suffered from malnutrition in the nineties were in countries and countries that produced abundance and more food.
Although the number of people suffering from hunger has decreased by 5 percent from the beginning of the 1990s, it is estimated that approximately 800 million people will continue to suffer from hunger in developing countries in addition to thirty million in other countries. In light of the population increase and the increase of rural-urban migration, the process of reducing hunger and combating it will become more difficult in the future than in the present time.
The main issue or issue here is to increase food security to ensure that household heads have the means to obtain adequate food for all members of their family and not be exposed to risk, as this is the method. There are many ways to increase food security, including: increasing both local production and productivity of food, increasing food import in a systematic and confirmed manner, providing work and jobs, and increasing income for those whose poverty prevents them from buying the food they need, in addition to improving food distribution systems.
This trend has now changed, diverging from the philosophy of food self-sufficiency and adopting partial dependence on food imports, and one of the main factors for the change is the scarcity of water resulting from the rapid increase in the population that led to a reduction in the human share of water and land available for exploitation, and at the same time, there is an increase In the urban sector demand for limited water resources. Some countries have found that there are higher returns from work and employment in industries other than agriculture. In short, it is easier and more profitable to obtain hard currency (foreign) that we buy imported food instead of cultivating and producing voracious agricultural crops for water.
