Food shortage (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

famine

'food shortage' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for famine that I've seen before include "Severe shortage of food for many" , "Starvation" , "Hunger" , "A great shortage as of food" , "Widespread scarcity of food" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
