http://bulo.hujiang.com/menu/11885/item/748449/If you are going to treat hunger in the world, you need to know how bad the situation really is. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization has a new project that may give us important information. It is called "Voices of the Hungry" and Christopher Cruise reports.
The UN agency wants to hear from the people themselves -- and not deal just with studies and reports. FAO official Carlo Cafiero says the current system of measuring food supplies and hunger is important. But he notes that it often causes long delays.
He says even developed countries do not have regular surveys -- studies -- of how much food people get to eat. Food consumption surveys are generally performed every five years. The FAO official says the current situation is not well understood, and that this became very apparent during the food price crisis.如果你准备对付全球饥饿问题，你需要知道目前的状况到底有多恶劣。联合国粮食及农业组织名为“饥饿者之声”的新项目或许能给我们一些重要的信息。下面由克里斯多夫·克鲁斯播报。
该联合国机构希望听取人们自己的反馈——而不仅仅是处理研究和报告。粮农组织官员卡洛·卡费罗表示，虽然当前使用的食物供应和饥饿的监测体系很重要，但经常造成长期滞后。
卡洛指出，即便在发达国家也没有就人们可摄入的食物量进行的定期调查或研究。通常，食品消费调查五年开展一次。他称，现在还没有完全掌握当前形势，这一问题在粮食价格危机中表现得尤为明显。
