Decent attempt, approach of your answer is correct. Points are also good, however, you can use flowcharts and diagrams to present more content.
Intro is fine, it can be linked with current affairs by mentioning about the ban on export of wheat announced by India.
Causes mentioned are good, food crops being diverted for biofuel generation and increase in prices of fertilizers and other petrochemicals can also be mentioned.
Implications are good, in India’s approach liberalisation of imports, prevention of diversification of land under food crops can be mentioned here only.
In conclusion, you can mention some steps that can be taken at global level- agri-research institute, global buffer stock of food etc.
Keep practicing. 🙂
