It also didn't help that China tried to implement equal distribution of food, which made the broken statistical system so disasterous. Had they had free market capitalism, the broken statistical system would not have such disasterous consequences. So, I would argue that communism is at least partly to blame for the famines.
What famines is capitalism to blame for?
Multiple famines in Ireland, Ethiopia, Bengal, Doji Bara, Chalisa, China (pre- Communist), Russia (ditto), England, and on and on.
