With the world population constantly increasing, it is crucial that we remain to feed, clothe and house this population. With resources becoming scarce, we must analyse and develop strategies that will ensure we can keep producing these resources and satisfy the demands of the population.

Food security is an important element to any ones life. It is defined as ones access to food and how available it is. If your home is deemed food-secure then it means you do not go by daily in hunger and have no fear of starving; the food that you have and can provide to yourself and family is enough to satisfy your needs. Worldwide, approximately 6 million children die annually due to starvation and a massive 852 million people are constantly hungry due to poverty. With food security being a massive problem, especially in poverty-stricken areas and third world countries, it is crucial that we find ways in which commodities in those countries can be utilised and farmers are producing as much as they can to meet the demands of the population.

Another element that has become more apparent in recent years is agriculture climate ...
... change. We all know that there has been an increased concern over the climate, with the affects of global warming becoming more fearful. If conditions stay as they are, many people believe that this will have a large impact on agriculture worldwide. A main commodity that it could affect is the Arabica bean, which as we know is the coffee bean. The two main agriculture climate changes that will have a large impact on coffee production is an increase in temperature and an increase or decrease in rainfall. Each country must look at ways in which we can prevent these climate changes from happening, not just for coffee production but also for worldwide agriculture as a whole

Many companies are constantly researching and analysing into different agricommodities and developing ways in which everyone across the world can be available to these. It is important that everyone is up to date with reliable and immediate information can be found regarding news and prices about a range of agricommodities. If research and data can be presented clearly, then this means everyone can have access to particular figures. If farmers are able to see crop specific weather forecasts, it means that can either protect or maximise their crops. This will enable them to harvest their crops to their best ability.

In order to minimise and prevent starvation worldwide, we must look at ways to develop and increase the supply of commodities across the world and with this, ensure we find ways that we can prevent climate change that could negatively affect the production of some commodities.
