The problem of hunger has been the primary concern of human beings for centuries. With calamity, poverty, and death, starvation chaos is one of the biggest dreads of human beings. There are main reasons for this. People have to eat their fills to survive and continue their generation. The competence of people to participate, produce and create economic, political, cultural, and artistic activities that will make their lives meaningful depends on being healthy, and for to be healthy, they must be well fed. If food is consumed without wasting, the resources of the earth are sufficient to feed more people than the world population today.
