IntroductionToday, there is an inevitable need for seeking novel ways to increase the production of food grains, else it can infringe the peace and balance of the world. Genetically modified crops are an alternative, but it should be implemented with a lot of precautions. The population of the world is increasing day by day. As the population increases, problems related to hunger and malnutrition also increase. This problem is not only present in developing countries, but also the developed countries of the world. Multidisciplinary approach is needed to combat this situation.Problem Many of the reforms and changes that have been implemented in an effort to combat the increasing shortages are to find a way to increase crop yields in order to provide more food to an increasing number of people. A current problem within agricultural and food policy is the scarcity of the world's food supply. While the United States seemingly has an abundant supply of food, many of the developing countries of the world are lacking and struggling with watching millions of people suffer from hunger. Countries such as Ethiopia, where the ensuing conflict has meant that more children and adults are at risk of becoming malnourished, occasionally flood the media in order to shock readers and watchers. Proposed solutions such as genetically altering standard crops may have momentarily increased food supplies, but has done very little to permanently increase food supplies (Brown, 1997, 15). Various humanitarian efforts have also been undertaken, but they, too, have failed to achieve the lessening of food shortages in affected nations and regions (Hogg, 1987, 47). In order for a permanent change to take place, specific policies within the affected nations need to be implemented. The affected nations need to be able to efficiently and evenly distribute their food supplies and ensure that all people within the nation have access to food supplies. Context and importance of the problem If this problem is not checked immediately, then the number is sure to increase to many folds as the world population is continuously increasing.The world population is about 7 billion out of which 14% of the world population suffer from problem of hunger and malnutrition conditions. If we calculate on that basis, it comes that 925 million is directly affected by this problem and in every seven people has the problem of malnutrition (Vanderslice and Kutzner, 2011 The increase in world population is also encroaching the habitat of wildlife which is disturbing the whole ecological biodiversity and balance. One of the proposed solution for meeting the crisis of food shortage is growing genetically engineered (GE). In fact scientist claim that GE crops are more nutritious (i.e. Bio-fortified golden rice) in comparison to traditional crops, less reactive to high or low levels of hydration, more resistant to temperature fluctuations and these crops can grow in soil conditions having poor nutrition or irrigation facilities. The world is dealing with the problem of hunger from many decades, but still the problem is present in the fronts of us. Some sincere efforts in the form of the Green Revolution took place between the 1940’s and the 1970’s encourages the world to deal with the problem in a more serious manner. Despites of such growth in efforts it helps in meeting the demand of only 15 percent of the world's population. The Green revolution was right steps in the right direction, but a lot of efforts needed and limited success of the green revolution is also checked by the many barriers in different parts of the worlds as corruption, governmental restriction and the problem of cross country trade (Brown, L. R. (2004)).
