I think many of the thousands starving to death even as we speak can define their needs (they need food). There is already enough agricultural capacity to feed the world only it isn't realised as prices are kept high.
Farmers in the developed world are actually paid (subsidies they call it) not to produce and excess stock is destoyed (quite how there can be an excess when there are chronic shortages in some parts of the world.....).
