Do we actually need more food crops though?

I thought we already produced enough food to feed the whole planet. Distribution is the real problem.

Smaller more diverse farms would help, but the grocery stores would have to learn how seasonal, regional crops work. Instead of offering pineapples, kiwis, and strawberries 365 days a year.

Why can't they? At least in North America refrigerated railcars make year round fresh fruit an option. Plus frozen fruit is an option anywhere
