AB  - Total number of countries and territories together are put at 235. Apparently, single blanket recommendation is not possible but one has to think of custom made and tailored solutions/policies-country and territory wise- and within country and territory wise. “How many are to be fed” and “How many are needed to feed” ? How much land needs to be ear marked for agriculture and animal husbandry? Statistics must be viewed from all angles while framing policies Viz; Nature of political governance; Total land area; Nature of the varies types of land available; Climatic conditions; Total population; Population density; Food habits; Availability of resources for agriculture and animal husbandry and for otherwise living. An integrated approach of tailor made strategies, creating strong awareness, incentives and disincentives, due monitoring and follow up must be there. This is required particularly in highly populated regions of the world apart from thinking of different strategies to increase food production and ensure food security. As the system of governance varies with the country, measures and the manner and extent of their implementation can vary.
