Description
Abstract: In an attempt to trace changes in food production and food consumption since 1950 when the first statistics were available, this book deals with what has happened and makes no attempt to predict. Since 1950, the world food problems consist of a large proportion of the population of Africa, Asia and Latin America, where people are either undernourished, malnourished or both. Hunger has been attributed to both population growth and poverty, with a close relationship to food output. The expansion of the world's arable lands and how food output has been increased with concomitant difficulties are topics examined in tracing food growth/output since 1950. A short history of hunger is included, as well as graphs and tables.
