Northern Africa is the Sahara Desert, where lack of water is the major agricultural problem (and although there are wells, they will be running dry very soon). Southwest Asia puts us in the vicinity of India. Excess population pressure is probably the biggest agricultural problem; when you have too many people, not only is there not enough land for the necessary agriculture, but you also get lots of other demands (housing, industry, etc.) competing for the limited land that is available. Flooding is also a frequent problem, particularly in Bangladesh.
