Today the world is facing a huge shortage of foodgrain, termed as the global food crisis.
Its main reason is the changing demand of human population.In past the demand was mainly on food items mostly but now it is changed to energy. People more amount of energy in a cheaper cost.
Accordingly the manufacturers changed their focus from producing food grains to production of energy. So the land (mostly in America) previously used for the purpose of cultivating food grains is now used to cultivate the plants producing biofuel (like Jatropha) to meet the growing energy demand of the growing population. Thats why the food grain production in the whole world has declined resulting in an acute food crisis.

Which now leads to inflation of nearly 8% in our country.
Thanx for reading this .
Post your view on this matter.
