HUNGER IN THE REGIONS OF THE WORLD
The main cause of hunger is drought.
Drought = Hunger
When it does not rain for a long time in a region, there is a lack of water for crops and livestock. In times of drought you cannot feed the cattle because there are no pastures, burned by the sun. Nor can it be cultivated, because without water plants do not grow.
The importance of water
In the world there are regions that suffer from drought every year. Deeper wells are being built in Africa in every village. It is also trying to irrigate the fields better. Humanitarian organizations often help those affected.
Devastating insects
Other natural disasters can destroy crops: a flood, a hurricane, an earthquake… and even insect clouds! The worst are locusts, winged grasshoppers that, when thrown over a region, devour all the plants in a few hours.
