A new study by the Food and Agriculture Organization lists 22 countries as the most vulnerable to the global food crisis and examines the level of hunger in various countries.
You can read more about it in the following articles:
This one from ReliefWeb focuses on Haiti.
China View speaks briefly about the countries named.
FAO’s Food Security Statistics are available on their website. Also refer to their Agricultural Outlook (2008-2017). You can read here about FAO’s study and their own suggestions for improving markets for farmers. I must say, however, that I do not agree with the article’s support for more free markets. The loss of protective organizations that once guaranteed prices for farmers are partially to blame for the insecurity of surviving on profits from farming (specifically small-scale farming).
