The trouble is less about the total amount of food (which there’s been enough of all along), and more about getting it where it needs to be. The standard mechanism is economics and politics. But these had suitable cracks in them for speculators to run wild.[1]

The graphs at Gapminder show moving kcal/person per country from 1965 to 2005. Over four decades, kcal/person availability has rapidly increased everywhere in the world except Africa. Even in Africa, it has increased. The distribution mechanism for food isn't broken.

What you're citing is a lot of hokum. There are no "food speculators" and "food speculators" aren't what keeps sub-Saharan Africa from enjoying the same rapid improvements as South America, Central, and Far-East Asia.
