Abstract

Argues that, although the global production of food may be sufficient to feed the world’s population, problems of poverty and distribution of food resources mean that hunger and malnutrition are still endemic in the developing world. In the face of these issues, the author suggests that biotechnology should be used to develop food crops whichoffer greater nutritional benefits so that the poorest people can obtain adequate nourishment from smaller quantities of food.
