The food problem is usually thought of as a food shortage relative to the population, or a situation in which the food supply cannot keep up with the population growth, and is therefore also called the population food problem. The population problem was first addressed by the British classical economist TR Malthus. In his 1798 book An Essay on the Principle of Population, Malthus argued that while population tends to grow exponentially, food supply only grows arithmetically, and therefore population must be restricted within the limits of food supply capacity.

食糧問題は通常,人口に対する食糧の不足ないし人口の増加に食糧の供給が追いつかない状態であると考えられ,したがって人口食糧問題ともいわれる。人口問題を最初にとり上げたのはイギリスの古典派経済学者T.R.マルサスであった。マルサスは1798年に出版された《人口論》で,人口は幾何級数的に増加する傾向をもつが,食糧の供給は算術級数的にしか増加せず,したがって人口は食糧の供給能力の枠内に抑制されざるをえない。
