Abstract
- Despite the fears of Malthus, production of the major food products (grains, oilseeds, and livestock) has kept pace with population growth on a global basis, though not always on a regional basis. This claim is supported with appropriate numbers and the ways in which food supplies have been increased are discussed. It seems likely that this can continue for at least another twenty years but the situation is less clear thereafter. However, man's ingenuity continues to provide hope for a favourable outcome.
