This research offers an in-depth examination of the factors contributing to food insecurity in developing regions, focusing on Africa. It presents a multifaceted approach to address these challenges. The study investigates the effects of gender disparities, natural disasters, climate change, and the transition from agriculture to oil production on food security. Additionally, the research underscores the crucial role of governments in delivering essential infrastructure, education, and effective monitoring systems to enforce environmental regulations. The significance of social networks, farmer collaboration, and innovative strategies such as crop rotation, mechanized farming systems, and agro-biotechnology in enhancing agricultural output and achieving food security is also highlighted. By integrating these various elements, the research provides a novel and comprehensive perspective on addressing food insecurity, emphasizing the need for cooperation among governments, the agricultural sector, and communities in developing regions to foster sustainable development and improve the quality of life for millions of people.
