' In spite of the advances made in agriculture, many people around the world still go hungry.' issue


Topic : 

n spite 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?

 

Answer : 

 

These days, many people are still starving around the globe despite the diverse developments in agriculture. It is clear that this is because there is a wide gap between the advanced countries and the developing countries at the extent of such an advance. Thus, resolving this issue through various efforts of the developed countries is the main priority.   

 

To explain more detailedly, the main cause of a severe famine issue in the world is that “the outstanding advances made in agriculture” is a phrase that is relevant to only a few developed countries in the First World. Also it is quite evident that even most presses are only focused on magnificent developments of agricultural technologies for wealthy nations, while ignoring a lot of people suffering from devastating hunger that might lead to death. Even though the advances in agriculture is clear, the developing countries in the Third World cannot afford such a large amount of expense to apply the state-of-the-art technologies for farming.   

 

There are several actions that should be taken for people who are still suffering. For one, the most urgent step is an attention from the advanced countries and direct aid from them. Most nations in the First World are generally indifferent to the serious hunger issues occurring in the other poor countries, while pretending to be attentive. This attitude should be changed first, and they should offer financial helps to make those developing countries affordable in order to keep up with the advance and feed their citizens. Financial aids for such as developing the agricultural fields or purchasing modern technologies applicable in farming would be the best way to solve this problem.   

 

To conclude, global starvation issue is really about the agricultural advances focused only on developed countries, which has led to the ignorance to the part of the world where cannot benefit from those developments. Therefore, the global attention and economic aids from worldwide, specifically from the advanced nations, should be made to resolve this problem.
