CHICAGOFARMER, I’m afraid you bought the scare tactics from the antilife people. But this should put you at ease:
“In November 1993 the World Bank produced The World Food Outlook which
anticipated further improvements in the world food situation. Here are some
of its conclusions:
“World food production has more than kept pace with population growth and
rates of growth of food production show few signs of slowing. During the 1980s,
world cereals production increased by 2. 1% per annum while
population grew by 1.7%.. prospects are very good that the 20-year period
from 1990-2010 will see further gains.”

I will study the article: however the following indicates bias big time.
I also notice very few if any references of scientific studies.
Finally, the UN is the last place to base your arguement, especially with all the food for oil scandles, and Kyto scandles.
