    　　October 16 is World Food Day．This day is also the anniversary(纪念日)of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization(FAO)(联合国粮农组织)．More than 100 countries are holding special events．All of these aim to celebrate the establishment of the FAO in 1945．The theme chosen for this year’s World Food Day is“Water：Source(资源)of Food Security”．

    　　A UN report says that over 6 million people have died from hunger and related diseases so far this year alone．More than 850 million people, or about one in seven, around the world do not get enough food, and the need for food will increase as the world’s population grows．The UN also reports that by year 2030, the world may need 60％ more food．Most of that increase will have to come from agriculture supported by water irrigation(灌溉)．However, fresh water is already in short supply in many countries．

    　　Jacques Diouf, the director of the FAO, says that there are 20 countries that do not have enough water to produce enough food for their populations．Ten nations use more than 40％ of their total fresh water for agriculture．He fears that the problem will only become worse as the need for water by people and by industry grows．So water is one of the most important things in the world today．
