Farmboy - you are talking about Australian farmers no doubt.
What about places like Africa? I read recently that population in at least one country (Uganda I think) has grown from about 5 million to 30 million in approx 50 years. Contraception is frowned on by both Catholics and Muslims.
In other places farms are neglected while countless wild animals are hunted to near extinction. In Nigeria and other countries there is wide spread unrest and corruption. Aid is wasted by the elites on palaces, limousines and mansions in Europe!
