From David’s words, we can know a lot about world hunger. First,….
For those who don’t know, FAO stands for Food and Agriculture Organisation. And our aim is simple to eliminate world hunger. So I guess things like droughts, floods, and climate change are all major factors in this. They can all seriously affect crop production. And another factor is poverty. People need to eat enough nutritious food, which often they cannot afford or do not have access to. And wars can heavily affect food production and transportation, meaning that millions of people have to go hungry.
To eliminate world hunger, the UN is making efforts to reduce climate change, and the FAO runs a project, which helps countries to develop sustainable agriculture. However, every country needs to focus on making new achievements in agriculture, too. Like China, for example, whose development of hybrid rice, has greatly increased rice production in many other countries. And, global conflict must be eliminated. And don’t forget that we as individuals can also make a difference: buy food that supports the environment, and never waste food.

A: We could also partner with local farms to learn about sustainable agriculture, like China's hybrid rice.
