Global Concern
The world currently produces more than enough food to feed everyone, yet 815 million people (roughly 11% of the global population) went hungry in 2016, according to the U.N. By 2050, with the global population expected to reach 9.8 billion, our food supplies will be under far greater stress
By 2050, with the global population expected to reach 9.8 billion, our food supplies will be under far greater stress. Demand will be 60% higher than it is today, but climate change, urbanization, and soil degradation will have shrunk the availability of arable land, according to the World Economic Forum. Add water shortages, pollution, and worsening inequality into the mix and the implications are stark.
Food security is a really serious issue facing all of humanity. In essence, it’s about how we feed a growing population at a time of climate change, which is unpredictable and not fully understood. Globally, we are reliant on a very slender thread of genetic diversity. According to the U.N.’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), more than 50% of all human calories come from just three plants: rice, maize, and wheat any countries produce it more, but many countries still import food grains like RICE upto 85%, thereby draining lot of their foreign exchange in such items that they can themselves produce.
Another biggest concern of Governments in developing and under-developed countries is retention of food-grains, vegetables, fruits, fishes, dairy product and poultry under right temperature conditions, cooling – refrigeration, which gets wasted upto an extent of 35% to 40% in quite some cases, thereby reducing the revenue of farmers and product growers significantsly.
