World Hunger

Other causes of world hunger

One other cause that contributes to hunger is nature and the draughts that occur. A draught is a span of time when there is little or no rainfall. In this time, farmers are unable to produce a great amount of crops that it usually does. In some places where these crops are the only source of food, they don’t get any. An example of this is in Ethiopia during the 80′s and 90′s. During that time tens of thousands of ethiopians died  and many others suffered form malnutrition and from disease.
