Food: Areas of Food Surplus & Food Deficit ⚖️ GCSE Geography Learning & Revision
In this episode, we discuss food surplus & food deficit.Global food dynamics are characterised by a stark contrast between nations with food surpluses and those facing food insecurity. While countries like China, India, and the USA are major food producers, several nations, particularly in Africa and the Middle East, struggle with providing enough food for their populations due to factors like conflict and environmental challenges. Higher-income countries generally exhibit greater food consumption in terms of daily calories, but emerging economies are seeing increased consumption with rising incomes. This disparity highlights the unequal distribution of food resources worldwide, leading to issues of both overconsumption and undernourishment.Don't miss out on subscribing for more educational content tailored to help you succeed in your exams.
