"AND THE FAMINE WAS HEAVY IN THE LAND." (Bereshis 43:1)
It is noteworthy that Hashem utilized the phenomenon of famine to achieve great benefits for His people. Because of this famine, Israel went down into Egypt; and because they afterwards were redeemed from Egypt by G-d's open miracles, they became sufficiently inspired to receive the Torah at Sinai. One of the lessons which we learn thereby is that the apparent calamities (such as famine) are also part of Hashem's kindness, and they can be the means of bringing very great  benefit. -- The Beginning
