Current Status and Importance of World Food Security Map of World Based on Population

Food Security Definition Food security is achieved when all people at all times have access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to maintain a healthy and active life. -- World Food Summit 1996

Undernourishment trends: Developing Regions Source: FAO/IFAD/WFP: State of Food Insecurity in the World 2014

The changing distribution of hunger in the world: Numbers and shares of undernourished people by region in 1990-92 and 2012-14 Total = 805 million (2012-14) At present, the world produces more than sufficient food to meet the demand of everyone, and maintains adequate food stocks. Yet, the number of hungry people in the world remains unacceptably high. The world is a home of 805 million undernourished people in 2012-14. One in every 9 people worldwide are suffering from chronic hunger, and the vast majority of them (98%) live in developing countries. Asia Region remains a home of nearly two-thirds (65%) of the world total chronic hunger population, despite its rapid economic growth. The benefit of economic growth was not equally shared among populations in different economic status. In many cases, it benefitted the rich who could invest further, while the poor who did not have capitals or resources were left behind, which resulted in widening of income disparity and social equity.

Future Food Demand Future food demand is determined by: Population growth Increasing incomes (per capita GDP) Diversifying diets, especially from livestock feed Biofuels Climate change disasters Global demand by 2050 must increase at least by 70% (FAO) but some estimates are up to 110% (Tilman et al.)
