The nation has come a long way in increasing production of food for security as well as nutritional security. The inter relationship of agriculture, food, cooking processes and health are highly complex and profoundly significant. It is complex relationships as change in any one component have effects on the viability and functioning of the other. India is home to a quarter of world's 795 million hungry people worldwide where the triple burden of malnutrition coexists. The pervasive micronutrient deficiency is known as HIDDEN HUNGER. World Bank data indicates that India has one of the world's highest demographics of children suffering from malnutrition. If food systems, based in agriculture, cannot provide all the essential nutrients in adequate quantities to sustain human life during all seasons, diseases ensue, societies suffer and development efforts stagnate. The book chapters in present book address these issues of malnutrition at the grassroots level where adoption of a multi-sectoral nutrition-sensitive approach is required. It works closely with the local communities to bring out individuals and families from the shackles of malnutrition and create nutrition smart villages. It is a model village where communities understand and take charge of their nutrition requirements, integrating agriculture with natural resource management, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH).
