World Hunger.
Problem: Thousands of people go to bed hungry every day yet
there is enough food to feed everyone. This statistic
demonstrates the percentage of imbalance in the world.
Many people worldwide have inadequate or small piece land or
adequate income to buy or grow food. Approximately 820
million people around the world suffer from chronic
undernourishment. Annually, people all over the world gather
around to celebrate World Food Day on 16th October. This
event is used to symbolize the commitment to eradicate lifetime
worldwide hunger. To increase the Gross Domestic Product
(GDP) of a developing country, child undernutrition should
come to an end. The largest population of people suffering from
hunger is in Asia with approximately 526 million hungry
people. Approximately one-third of the food for human

2. consumption produced in the world gets wasted or lost.
Poverty is the major cause of world hunger. Families affected
by poverty cannot afford nutritious food which leads to
undernourishment making it difficult to earn money for healthy
foods. War and conflict are also factors leading to world
hunger. South Sudan civil war led to abandoned fields and mass
displacement. The war resulted to crop failure combined with
inflated rates of imported foods making them expensive for low -
income earners and a rise in food insecurity. World hunger is
not only about lack of access f food but also lack of access to
the right nutrients. Humans need various foods that provide
essential health benefits. Most families rely on just one or two
staple foods hence not getting enough essential vitamins and
macronutrients.
World hunger is a huge problem that requires creative
approaches to help solve it. This problem can be solved by
applying emerging and innovative technologies such as
analytics, the internet of things (IoT), and blockchain. Advances
in farming methods and genetic engineering will enhance the
growth of crops efficientl y and affordable which means more
available food sources for everyone.
Gene-edited crops are an essential and quicker method of
breeding. This technology could assist in the eradication of
world hunger as new companies are set up to evolve nutritious
food to deliver high-quality ingredients that can complete
transparency. The new technology will assist researchers in the
correction of genetic defects. 3D food printing is also a
technology that would be a remedy to the world hunger
problem. This technology can be good and healthy for the
environment since it converts ingredients such as proteins, from
algae or insects into nutritious foods. 3D food printing also
offers a vast possibility which makes the consumption such as
meat, more sustainable.
Through a farming management concept that incorporates the
internet of things technology, precision agriculture may be a
solution to help feed the world with nutritious food. This

3. technology uses Global Positioning Systems in achieving
accuracy when driving in the field to provide navigation and
position anywhere in the world. This technology can be used by
agricultural companies that combine unmanned drones and
tractors to assist in future precision by farmers in making smart
production decisions hence increase in crop yields and
efficiency of farms.
In conclusion, the purpose of this research is to examine how
technology can help in the eradication of world hunger. Through
technology, the thousands of people that go to bed hungry every
day would be reduced.
