The huge contradiction between the agricultural production's growth and, parallel to, the population of starving shows that Brazil has still been obtaining much more outcome in production of food than its distribution in an appropriate way. Josué de Castro and his several works about geography of the feeding and underdevelopment are an ample way of review about the real causes of hunger in Brazil.
