in Accordance with US billionaire Bill Gates, the solution to the global food crises is to use agricultural technology, particularly his "magic seeds" project .
A report by the Gates Foundation, according to the French AFP, "The global hunger crisis is so great that food aid cannot fully address it. The way out is to create the kinds of innovations in agricultural technology it has long funded " "
"The temperature continues to rise and there is no way we can get close to being able to feed Africa without innovation, It is dark for our hopes, but we can get back on track " the report said .
Gates' repeated statements that technology should be brought to the fore to solve the global food crises have been criticized by environmentalists, who argue that the solution to "seeds" takes years and will not immediately bring relief to suffering countries, and from other wise development of seeds is for environmentally harmful substances such as pesticides and fossil fuels .
Gates' "magic seeds" are crops designed to adapt to climate change and resist agricultural pests .
Bill Gates is one of the 3 richest men in the world with an estimated $109 billion worth . he has interest and funding for environmental, food and health projects
A United Nations report published in July 2022 confirmed that the number of people suffering from hunger in the world rose to about 828 million in 2021, an increase of about 46 million since 2020 and 150 million since the outbreak of the Corona pandemic .
