The other name for this overshoot - where a life form expands to the point that the environment can no longer support them, for whatever reason. Threats to the food supply include plant diseases, climate collapse, pollution, and over-harvesting the soil. We're doing all these.
That's the phase humans are in now, overshoot. But there's no food shortage for now. There's only greed and refusal to feed everyone.

A quotation from George Orwell
By “nationalism” I mean first of all the habit of assuming that human beings can be classified like insects and that whole blocks of millions or tens of millions of people can be confidently labeled “good” or “bad.” But secondly — and this is much more important — I mean the habit of identifying oneself with a single nation or other unit, placing it beyond good and evil and recognizing no other duty than that of advancing its interests.
George Orwell (1903-1950) English journalist, essayist, writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1945-05), “Notes on Nationalism,” Polemic Magazine (1945-10)
