dc.descriptionPoverty, as both a cause and an effect of food insecurity, continues to be a major challenge in Asia and the Pacific where the bulk of the poor in developing countries - approximately 75 percent are located. In this region, as elsewhere in the developing regions of the world, poverty is mainly a rural phenomenon: nearly three-fourths of the poor live in rural areas, with the large majority of them dependent on agriculture for employment and income. Agricultural growth thus offers a potentially e normous source of poverty reduction, particularly when the growth is broadly based.
