Is stirring people up to repentance the typical purpose of famines? Helaman 11:4

Is stirring people up to repentance the typical purpose of famines? Helaman 11:4

Basically, yes, though it is probably also a result of natural human consequences.

I've read that famine is more often a human-caused disaster than a natural disaster. It's the reason why during the Potato Famine in Ireland in the 1840's, they were actually exporting food (!!!). It's a social problem caused by a lack of compassion and humanity.
