Well, I can’t really see what poor farmers in East Africa and the Middle East are doing wrong – but maybe there’s more than meets the eye. Well, now locust plagues are ravaging much of the the third world. This is incredibly dangerous – as when food supplies go low, famine strikes – and also massive instability – leading maybe to full-scale war.
Of course, now the US might be out of the picture to help much – cause it’s being ravaged with Covid 19.

Locust plagues are an annual event in Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the North-Western parts of India (Gujarat/Rajasthan). Sometimes, they travel all the way from Egypt.
It’s the climate. Most of this region is semi-arid with thorny vegetation. That makes it sparsely populated. Almost nothing you can do to control the locusts. It is very difficult to predict when they will strike.
The curse on the Egyptians.
