If Africa could feed itself, then funding would not be such a big issue nor would the rising food prices. Zimbawe itself formally could have fed Africa. You seem to have a very one sided view and not very balanced. What you never explain is why Africa is in the position it is in. Perhaps corruption, inefficient allocation of resources and the inefficiency of NGOs. I agree we have a huge problem, but I do not see anything from you except spend more money and hope for the best.
