18 Jul 2019 --- The world is off-track to meet most of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets linked to hunger, food security and nutrition, according to a Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) report. The report paints a grim picture, with “regression as the norm,” according to the agency. It details how hunger is on the rise, small-scale food producers' earnings are about half that of larger food producers, more than half of local livestock breeds are at risk of extinction and high food price volatility is rife in many developing countries. It also highlights insufficient crop diversity security, overfishing, water stress and forest losses.
