  1. @tiffany Take it from someone who lives in a granary country. Distribution systems are convulted and held in a vice grip by organizations like truckers' guilds (or whatever the english word for it is) that fight to keep it that way to keep their jobs, when replacing truck long dstance hauling with cargo trains and boats would extremely reduce costs. And that's just one of the issues. There's enough food for the current population, it's a matter of better dstribution of both food AND population. Population density is horribly distributed having areas with 35000 people per square kilometer and areas with one people each 10 kilometers or less.
