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

Nowadays,

due to

the development in agricultural technology, the

food

produced worldwide would be enough for the population,

however

, many people suffer from malnutrition. In my opinion, the wrong

distribution

of foodstuff and the tons of good

food

that goes to

waste

around the world are the leading causes, but these could be solved if

governments

would set up an equal repartition of nourishment and improve the current measures of foodstuff treatment. A major leading cause of continued hunger is the poor

distribution

of nourishment around the world.

This

is because some

countries

consume more

food

than they need,

while

others suffer from malnutrition.

For example

, many developed

countries

have large numbers of restaurants, where citizens enjoy delicious meals as a pastime. Meanwhile, in other developing

countries

, citizens do not have enough

food

for their entire families.

This

could be solved if

governments

would establish laws to distribute

food

according to

the inhabitants of each country, resulting in an equal

distribution

of resources. Another relevant cause of

this

issue is the tons of

food

that are wasted

as a result

of improper foodstuff treatment.

Although

many states try to reduce the amount of

food

wasted, it is a fact that some states

waste

large amounts of

food

each day,

according to

recent news.

Moreover

, these products could be consumed or sent to developing

countries

before they go to

waste

.

For example

,

countries

such

as the United States throw away tons of

food

to

waste

every day

instead

of giving it to homeless people.

This

situation could be addressed if

governments

set up measures for

food

treatment, punishing

countries

that misuse

food

and encouraging others to reduce their amounts of

food

waste

.

To conclude

, I believe that poor

distribution

of nourishment and the amount of

food

that is

wasted are the main causes of people’s hunger. Both of these problems could be solved if

governments

increase their controls over

food

distribution

, setting up an equal repartition

according to

the population and punishing

countries

which misuse the

food

they consume in order to reduce people’s hunger.
