Done.
You know what the appropriate answer would've been? Introducing school lunches, where kids are feed fruits, vegies, glass of milk, 2 naans and a sawlan. Every school day at 12:00pm
We have that scheme know as Mid day meal

I agree. There should be less government intervention in farming, except when it comes to a standard quality control.

I know some people are saying that instead of exporting the produce we should "feed it to the poor" but honestly the only reason our farmers are producing this much produce is because of the incentive for selling them, not to give it away into charity.

But that isnt to say that they shouldn't give the food to their own needy countrymen, but charity can only be voluntary and not forceful. For this we need a spiritual incentive which Islam already provides. The only problem is how do we change the average mans priority from stuffing his own pockets at the expense of his countrymen to instead having concern for his own countrymen and seeking their benefit. But this can only be done through instilling a sense of community in the people, and this as well cannot be forced, but by giving people good (living, breathing and practicing) role models.

Government intervention tends be perceived as negative and bad for competiton. It can play totally positive role in promoting competition, for example removing illegal trade barriers/practice (by certain players or vested local interest, which is very common in developing countries), reducing logistics cost through better infrastructure, education in technology, standardization, etc. In many cases, the market is not functioning as effective as could be is because of insufficient government interference, not the opposite.

We tend to find that many developing countries could not have enough food for domestic consumption is because the food price is too low and the farmers are not compensated for their work and are too poor. Therefore they are not motivated and unable to grow more food. This is the market distortion that the government should take active step to address, not simply leaving it to “market” force.
