Answer:

Food production and availability is a problem for many people throughout the world. Many people try to help this problem by trying to provide food for those in need, but this isn't a real advantage to anyone. When people buy more of one a product to donate, it causes an increase in demand that the supply may not be keep up with causing the prices to increase, making it harder for everyone to afford it Even if the supply increases but then produces more than demanded the prices for the particular product will drop, resulting in the farmers not being paid enough, or growing more could lead to the land losing resources faster than normally.

Answer:If increases in supply do not keep pace with growth in demand, food prices rise, attracting resources into food production. If supply grows faster, food prices and farm incomes fall, driving resources out of agriculture. Resources may not move fast enough to correct imbalances.
