Giving food aid is a terrible idea, except in extreme emergencies (failed harvest/war/pestilence etc.). Food aid makes it more difficult for local farmers to make a subsistence income as they cannot compete against the free food from the west. It’s far better to aid by transferring money directly or by transferring skills (i.e. education).
Independent of the system you would have to ask the question whether developing countries should attempt to be self-sufficient or rely on transfers from abroad.
