Food and Nutrition Security: Analytical Fallacies and Way Forward
Food and nutrition security (FNS) being a key priority area in development planning, requires good predictive models for holistic analysis of the concept, representative of the multi-dimensional linkages associated with the complex phenomenon. The present article discusses the conceptual dissents, and the popular proxy measures from which FNS is being most often inferred in practice. We suggest possible integration of the measures within the scope of a multifaceted framework in light of the limitations and potential risks in using them in isolation.
