1. Presented by
Bijesh Mishra,
B.Sc.Ag. 7th sem,
IAAS, Rampur, Chitwan
18th September, 2012

2. Earth is a home to 6.7 billion people.

3. 850 million go to bed on their empty
stomachs.

4. Every day, almost 16,000 children die from
hunger-related causes i.e one child in
every five seconds.

6. FUTURE FOOD
PROJECTION

7. ...and to make the matters
worst, world's population is
expected to increase from present
6.7 billion to 8.3 billion by 2025.

8. Even with per capita food
production remaining
constant, feeding 8.3 billion
population by 2025 would
require an additional 2.6 billion
tons of food over and above
existing 4.6 billion tons.

9. With the existing resources, technology and
manpower, the EXTREME FOOD CRISIS in the near
future is inevitable.

12. That's the reason what makes me say,
World needs agricultural scientists, rather
than other proffessionals.

13. An agriculturist is not a farmer. He is a
good artist, scientist and a perfect
business man.

14. Real doctors treat more than
one species.
