According to Malthus, when food production is more than is needed by the population, the population increases; if population grows too much faster than food production, the population growth is slowed by famine, disease, and war.

How did Darwin relate Malthus's ideas to evolution by natural selection?

Darwin was inspired by Thomas Malthus's idea that populations grow faster than the resources available to support them. Darwin applied this concept to the natural world, suggesting that individuals within a species compete for limited resources, leading to a struggle for survival. This struggle, along with natural variation and heritability of traits, forms the basis for natural selection, where individuals with advantageous traits are more likely to survive and reproduce, passing those traits on to their offspring.

How do the statement of malthus relate with the present situation of the world?

Thomas Malthus noted in the 18th century that the rate of increase in world population exceeded that of food production and predicted that only famine, war and pestilence will curb the continuing increase in human population. This prediction underscores the importance of finding new technology to increase food production worldwide as well as to improve awareness on the negative effects of a bloated population. It is estimated that if we should go back to the natural way of finding food by hunting and gathering of food from the wild, only 2 of every 1000 humans in 2011 will survive.
