A majority of India's population continue to be dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods, with close to 60 percent of the rural households in 2012-13 classified as agricultural households (GoI, 2014). The country is also home to a large population of undernourished people. As per the latest round of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-4), in 2015-16, 38.4 per cent of India's children, below the age of five were stunted and 35.7 per cent underweight; one fifth of women in the reproductive age group, were estimated to be suffering from chronic energy deficiency while another one fifth were obese. Further, more than 50 per cent of children and women suffer from anaemia (IIPS-ICF, 2017). In a context where a significant section of the population is malnourished and are dependent on agriculture for their livelihoods; a potential pathway would be to leverage agricultural policies and practices to address household food and nutrition security.
