The subject of food production, and especially of this food production being sufficient to meet the needs of a growing world population, and a growing climate that is causing a rise in food insecurity, is one that has been the discussion around the world for years now. As of the last meeting of the FAO in 2018, the unfortunate discoveries made were that malnourishment and nutritional difficulties, were still very much at the top of the scale. However, with technological advances in food production, and especially with these advances helping producers to adapt to a changing climate, as well as with governmental policies now being geared towards ensuring sustainability of food production and the environment, are sure to help make matters less grave.

As such, the best answers to your questions, would be:

1. New innovations in food production are: Sure to find new ways to produce enough food to feed the world. This is the hope and so far technological advances are managing this. However, there is still the debate that these advances, though ensuring crop survival to harsh environmental changes, are still not resolving the issue of hunger in many countries, in part because they are too expensive for most farmers to acquire and governments are not instituting enough policies to help these farmers acquire the technology.

2. New innovations in food production are: Not keeping pace with food needs of the world. Unfortunately that was one of the results of the meeting of the FAO in 2018. Innovations are being made, but these are either too expensive for poorer food producers, or they focus too much on one side of the problem, and not all of them. The result is that although the problem of hunger descended a bit in 2015, it peaked again from 2016 and has still not abated.
