Breakthoguhs in science have developed new technologies and economic systems that are doing working better and better, hunger could disappear by the year 2005. According to FAO: Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations, in 30 years, if the productivity of many production units around the world is increased, malnutrition will reach significantly low levels. FAO assures that this could be achieved through the use of fertile land and further enhance mechanization, biogenetics, and chemistry in the form of fertilizers.

Since 1990, hunger has been reduced by 50 percent worldwide. At the beginning of the last decade of the 20th century, 20% of the world's population was undernourished, while in 2015 it fell to 10% and in 2030 it will fall to 5%. This means that the number of undernourished people has risen from more than 1.01 billion to 794 million. All this with the notable increase in the world's population. In 1990, the planet had 5.31 billion inhabitants and today the figure is 7.5 billion. By 2050, the population will exceed 9.7 billion.

By region, Asia has seen the largest decline, from 741 million undernourished people in 1990 to 511 million in 2015 - from 23 percent to 12.1 percent. The reasons are to be found in the economic openness of countries such as China or India, which have been experiencing strong economic growth in recent decades thanks to new economic reforms based on the free market. For its part, Africa is the only continent where hunger has increased, from 181.7 million hungry to 232 million. Although it has increased in number, Africa has reduced its share from 27.6 percent of the undernourished population to 20 percent - this is due to population growth.

By country, Haiti, Zambia and the Central African Republic are the three countries with the highest percentage of the population suffering from malnutrition in 2014. They are followed closely by Namibia and North Korea. They are the only five countries with more than 40% of the population suffering from malnutrition.

Eating is becoming cheaper and cheaper, as the latest Mercasa study shows. In 1964, Spaniards spent 48.7% of their salary on food, in 2015 this percentage was reduced to 17%. In other words, eating is now 65% cheaper than it was 50 years ago. Bread, pasta, cereals, eggs, and oil are the foods that have reduced their price the most during this historic period. Why so? because we have increased our productivity throughout the creation of new international companies, competition, lower taxes, these factors are, in fact, the account for the economic growing that the world has been living since the last 200 years

Something that very few would recognize from all this, is that everything is due to the capitalist system, even when the OXFAM tries to discredit any type of action that includes the free market by providing manipulated data to obtain media attention and be used as absolute truth. Cases like this presented by FAO show that the world we live in today is much better despite constant criticism of the economic systems that have brought prosperity and growth to everyone in the world, no one has been excluded.
