Latin America is not meeting the challenge of feeding hungry people in an economic crisis, according to the United Nation's Food and Agriculture Organization.
The group said today that although malnutrition affects 8 million fewer people since 1990, the trend is reversing.
"The bad news is all the benefit of these 15 years has been lost," FAO regional delegate Jose Graziano da Silva said.
About 51 million people in Latin America are affected by hunger.
