Starvation on a scale that causes population declines in large regions are rare. The effect of food shortage more often limits population growth by chronic malnutrition making the people susceptible to disease. Here is a web site that links to information on localized famines.

However China has had several population crashes through out history and a recent famine in the 1950's . There is also speculation that the very high death rates in Europe from the black death was in part due to malnutrition of the population.
