Abstract: Abstract Food security is one of the greatest concerns among developing countries. A long history of crop failure and mismanagement of the food system has led to multiple famines in several nations. No government wants to be in a situation where even a part of their country faces food shortages. However, according to the recent estimates, from 2014 onwards, the number of people who are undernourished started to gradually rise until, in 2020, the world saw an unprecedented setback in its efforts to end hunger (FAO, 2021).
