Based on population projections, current food production will be able to provide food for the world population.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not enough data
• D. Uncertain

Answer: (B)

Feeding a growing world depends on more than just holding steady today’s production. Population projections show more people to feed, and demand tends to rise as incomes grow and diets shift toward more calories and animal products. Even if production could increase, current levels are unlikely to keep pace with this expanding demand, and substantial losses, inefficiencies, and unequal access mean many people would still go hungry. Climate variability, water and land constraints, and disease pressures on crops and livestock further threaten reliable supply. Therefore, the statement is not supported, and meeting future needs requires boosting efficiency, reducing waste, and expanding sustainable production.
