 Importance of Food Security

  • Access to safe, nutritious, and affordable food is recognized as a fundamental human right, essential for individual dignity and well-being.

  • Food security is critical for maintaining good health, which in turn enhances economic productivity and contributes to a more robust workforce.

  • When communities have reliable access to food, it fosters social cohesion and reduces the risk of conflict and instability, promoting peaceful coexistence.

  • With an estimated 733 million people facing hunger, the global community must prioritize addressing food insecurity to ensure sustainable development.

Challenges Faced by the Agriculture Sector in India

  • 82% of farmers are smallholders with less than 2 hectares of land, facing significant challenges.

  • Overuse of water and harmful agricultural practices degrade soil and resources.

  • Poor infrastructure and supply chain inefficiencies limit farmers' market access and income

  • Many small and marginal farmers lack access to financial services and modern technology.

  • Erratic weather patterns threaten agricultural productivity and sustainability.


Initiatives Taken to Ensure Access to Safe and Nutritious Food for All

  • National Food Security Act (NFSA): Provides food entitlements to over 800 million citizens.

  • Fortified Rice Distribution: Approved for 2024-2028 to improve nutrition.

  • Historical efforts such as Green Revolution increased food availability, now focusing on nutrition and diverse food sources.

  • Public Distribution System: Ensures food access across agricultural and non-agricultural households.

  • Promoting education, technology, and financial support to empower small farmers and improve livelihoods.

  • Collaboration with Global Agencies: FAO, IFAD, and WFP work with India to promote sustainable agricultural practices and market access.
