as a commodity in international markets by speculators.

Possible solutions:
Information and Communication Technologies
(ICT): At present, when people are more connected to the other world, and the world shrinks like a single country. The use of smartphones is more common in every state, and it is used in different fields to sort out the problems related to agriculture
Policy framework: There should be good policies to combat the food insecurity either the government or private.
Fairtrade: It is necessary for
development to ensure food commodities prices in the international market.
