Despite disproving the Malthusian population theory, why is Bangladesh still considered a food-insecure country?
Renowned sociologist and demographer, Robert Malthus, stated in his famous population theory that "the population of a country increases geometrically," meaning it multiplies by factors like 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and so on. Conversely, food production increases arithmetically, following a progression like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Industrial production also increases at a geometric rate similar to population growth. Therefore, for effective and sustainable economic development in any country, emphasis must be placed on industrial production first. If a country achieves self-sufficiency in industrial production, the demand for food by the population can be met through imports.
