A famine is a situation when there is not enough food available to feed people.
As a result of famine people can not eat properly and their bodies begin to suffer, This is called malnutrition.

Note - it is also possible to have malnutrition when there is plenty of food available to eat. In this case the malnutrition is caused because people are not eating a healthy balance diet - some food requirements are missing from the diet being eaten.
