Earth is a home to 6.7 billion people.

850 million go to bed on their empty stomachs.

Every day, almost 16,000 children die from

hunger-related causes i.e one child in

every five seconds.

FUTURE FOOD PROJECTION

...and to make the matters worst,

world's population is expected to

increase from present 6.7 billion to 8.3

billion by 2025.

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.

With the existing resources, technology and manpower, the

EXTREME FOOD CRISIS in the near future is inevitable.

That's the reason what makes me say,

World needs agricultural scientists, rather than other proffessionals.

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

Real doctors treat more than one species.
