Resumen
Descripción
Nutrition sensitive agriculture aims to
maximize the impact of nutrition outcomes for the poor,
while minimizing the unintended negative nutritional
consequences of agricultural interventions and policies on
the poor, especially women and young children. It is
agriculture with a nutrition lens, and should not detract
from the sector's own goals. The agriculture sector is
best placed to influence food production and the consumption
of nutritious foods necessary for healthy and active lives.
Agricultural productivity, focused primarily on staple
grains, does not necessarily reduce under nutrition.
Policies that strongly favor staple grains over other crops
or foods may skew the balance from nutritious foods.
