Nigeria is country that is well known as a typical agricultural nation which was once the mainstay to the country economy and because of the agricultural strength of the country compel them to have their flag as Green White Green which signify agriculture and peace but it baffles me to see the level of hunger going on in Nigeria now to the extend that an average Nigerian cannot boast of feeding himself and family three square meal per day.
What could be the root cause of this hunger in a country that has all it takes including human capitals and natural resources to make a great nation that the whole would will cherish and envy.

Even though Nigeria has fertile and productive agricultural land, there are still problems such as gaps in food distribution, lack of adequate infrastructure to transport agricultural products, as well as the problem of ineffective food policies. This makes it difficult for most Nigerians to meet their daily food needs, despite the country's agricultural potential. However, on the other hand, compared to Indonesia, which is an agricultural country, it also faces challenges in the agricultural sector, but has succeeded in keeping hunger levels relatively low through various effective food policies and programs. Despite problems such as unequal distribution and climate change, Indonesia is able to make better use of its agricultural potential. for example, Indonesia has a food self-sufficiency program which aims to meet domestic food needs without having to rely on imports. Apart from that, diversification of agricultural products and promotion of organic farming also helps increase food security and reduce hunger levels in Indonesia.
A comparison between Nigeria and Indonesia in the agricultural context shows the importance of efficient management and appropriate policies in ensuring food availability for the community. Although both countries have great agricultural potential, differences in policy approaches and implementation can affect hunger levels and the overall well-being of society.
