| dcterms.description | This volume reviews the food problem in developing countries and evaluates policy alternatives both at the macro (economy-wide) level and at the micro (individual fanner and household) level. The issues at the macro level include definitions of food security, mapping policy alternatives over food vis-\E0-vis other national objectives, modelling food security policies, and quantifying the effects of policy on the various sectors of the economy.
At the micro level, they include methods of on-farm storage and factors leading to their adoption, the health consequences of transitional malnutrition, methods of controlling quality of stored grain, etc. The book also reviews practical issues involved in the design of a successful strategy to cope with food insecurity. It will interest economists, those concerned with stored products and nutritional policy, and others involved in feeding the growing populations of less developed countries.
