This open access volume discloses rich set of findings and policy
recommendations for India towards achieving the SDG 2.1 target of
zero hunger by 2030. Through its fourteen chapters, it takes an
integrated approach by examining diverse aspects of food and
nutrition security through multidisciplinary lens of Agricultural
Economics, Nutrition, Crop Sciences, Anthropology and Law, while
being rooted in economics. The chapters reflect this diversity in
disciplines in terms of the questions posed, the data sets used,
and the methodologies followed. Starting from the evolution of
policy response for hunger and nutrition security, the book covers
aspects such gender budgeting, dietary diversity, women’s
empowerment, calorie intake norms, socio-legal aspects of right to
health, subjective wellbeing, bio-fortification, crop insurance and
food security linkages, interdependence of public distribution
system (for food security) and employment guarantee schemes
especially during COVID-19 pandemic, effects of dairy dietary
supplements, and so on. With its rich discussions, the book
is compelling for students, researchers, policy makers, development
professionals and practitioners working in areas of food and
nutrition security, SDGs, in particular SDG1, SDG2 and SDG5, and
sustainable food systems.Â
