3. Food security – An evolving concept
In the 50s and 60s: Food security = self sufficiency in major staples
After World Food Conference of 1974:Food Security = Access to
sufficient food
World Food Summit of 1996:“Food security exists when all people, at
all times, have physical and economic access tosufficient, safe and
nutritious food to meet their dietary needs and food preferences for an
active and healthy life”.
Food Security is part of Nutrition Security
The concept of Nutrition security — ensuring access to food that is
nutritious as well as sufficient — is increasingly being used to
stress the importance of the quality of food for people of all ages
4. What is Nutrition?
Nutrition is the science
and practice of
consuming and utilizing
foods. It is the study of
nutrients in food, how
the body uses
nutrients, and the
relationship between
diet, health and disease.
5. Why nutrition is important?
Foundation to development contributing to MDG’s
Economic benefit
LBW perpetuates the intergenerational cycle of
undernutrition and disease
Economic growth alone unlikely to yield Nutrition

7. The food and agriculture sector and nutrition
Narrowing the “nutrition gap”
the gap between what foods are available and what foods are needed
for a healthy diet
Diets are often low in quantity, quality and variety
(hunger and micro-nutrient deficiencies)
Increased production of staple foods is not sufficient
Need to ensure local availability and access of the right mix of
foods in all seasons
Consumers must be informed
Collaboration must be established with : (a) social protection
programmes to support the poorest and (b) with health &
multi sectors/programmes

15. Nutritional and health status
Nutrition and health are closely linked:
NUTRITIONAL STATUS
disease contributes to malnutrition
HEALTH STATUS
while malnutrition makes an individual more
susceptible to disease.
This can eventually lead to severe
malnutrition and death.

46. The Country Investment Plan
Responding to L’Aquila Initiative and
in line with the 5 Rome Principles, the
CIP was Approved on 14 June 2010
following the Bangladesh Food Security
Forum.
Translates the policy frameworks in a
comprehensive set of 12 priority
investment programmes and aims at
• convergence and alignment of
domestic and external funding
• mobilizing additional resources:
Bangladesh qualified as first Asian
country receiving a grant under the
Global for US $ 52.5 million
The revised CIP, based on extensive consultation, incorporates over 400
projects of which 146 ongoing (for US$ 3.036 billion) and 262 in pipeline
(for US$ 4.945 billion of which US$ 3.299 billion are priority).
47. Concluding Remarks
Bangladesh is an exemplary case of a consistent long term effort to put in place
a comprehensive policy framework for food security and nutrition
HPNSDP is ready for implementation
This framework provides a platform for
Dialogue among government, civil society and development partners
Alignment, coordination and harmonization of interventions
Within the FS framework, CIP is the tool for prioritizing, enhancing effectiveness
and scaling up food security investments
Food security is critical to nutrition security – ensuring access to safe and
nutritious food – emphasis on quality of food
A conducive institutional setting and continued commitment of all partners are
needed to sustain the implementation and monitoring process in the
medium/long term
48. Way Forward
Global/regional/national commitment to mobilize the
necessary resources to address the problem decisively.
Improve capacity building and awareness raising on food and
nutrition security at household level
Integrate /strengthen nutritional considerations into
agriculture, food and health policies and interventions to
improve food security and nutrition
Establishing information and surveillance systems that are
critical for developing evidence-based food security and
nutrition policies.
Sustain involvement of multiple actors –
strengthen/establish community based and national
mechanisms for nutrition
Distinguished participants, good afternoon,I shall present my topic on food utilization or nutrition today.
All the acceptable definitions of food security in use imply nutrition but only in the sense thatHousehold FS means that if the household’s food are consumed according to the dietaryrequirements of all household members their dietary/nutritional needs will be met; Nutrition security requires simultaneously ‘food’, ‘health’ and ‘care’. So, there is no way toachieve nutrition security without FS at household level. FS must include ‘food safety; FS and NS are closely interrelated and may appear in a vicious cycle, but at a differentmagnitude, according to the context. For instance, where infectious diseases are theprevailing cause of malnutrition, the addition of more food is not effective, or, vice versa, afurther investment in the health sector does not help, if food insecure was the fundamentalproblem
The WFS goal of halving the number of undernourished people in the world by 2015 threatens to be out of reach. FAO’s most recent estimates put the number of hungry people at 925 million in 2008 versus 842 million in 1990-92, the baseline period for the World Food Summit (WFS) and Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The majority of the world’s undernourished live in developing countries; 2/3 live in just 7 countries (BGD, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia and Pakistan) and over 40% live in China and India alone. Projections for 2010 indicate that the number of undernourished people will decline in the developing regions although with a different pace; the region with most undernourished continues to be Asia and the Pacific, but with a decline of 12% from 658 M in 2009 to 578 M in 2010.
The situation in selected S Asia countries shows that the % decline of undernourishment in the last 15 years has been satisfactory in Bangladesh, Nepal and better in Sri Lanka but this is not the situation in India and Pakistan.
FAO recommends maximum contribution of DES from cereals (DES Cer % ) as 60% for good health and nutrition; higher than 60% DES Cer makes the diet imbalanced; population habitually consuming relatively high amounts of cereals are likely to suffer from MN; regression analysis on data from 29 countries between dietary indicators and prevalence of stunting, wasting and UW was done; significant correlations were seen between DES Cer % and child MN rates in the region
The definition of FS emphasizes availability, accessibility and utilization of food; the inclusion of utilization underlines that nutrition security is more than food security; This figure illustrates the relationship among the categorical elements within the conceptual framework of FS; 2 determinants influence the framework. Physical determinants influence the food flow :availability, accessibility and utilization; availability is achieved if adequate and safe food is ready to have at people’s disposal; access is ensured when all HHs have sufficient resources to obtain appropriate foods (through production, purchase or donation) for a nutritious diet. Adequate utilization refers to the ability of the human body to ingest and metabolize food; nutritious and safe diets, an adequate biological and social environment, proper health care to avoid disease ensure utilization of food. In most cases utilization is discussed only from the biological perspective, however, food has also an imp social role keeping flys and communities together; in times of fis, this role fns can be achieved only when sufficient culturally adapted food is available within the hh and communities to meet their biological and social needs; Stability is a temporal determinant of FS and affects all 3 physical determinants; includes factors of seasonality and disaster situations
In Bangladesh, the contribution of cereals (mainly rice) to total dietary energy consumption is unacceptably high, especially in rural areas. This is a result of various factors, including high availability, cheaper prices, but also old-age dietary habits and cultural practices. DES from cereals in Bangladeshi diet was as high as 79.6 in the early nineties, decreasing only marginally to 72.9 in 2005. The dietary imbalance is much more pronounced in rural areas, with the DES from cereals reaching 75.2%, against 66.7% in urban areas. One will note, however, that the decrease in the ratio has been slower in urban compared to rural areas. Inadequate but also highly imbalanced energy supply is one of the important factors leading underweight and stunting in young children and CED in adults. In particular, the dietary supply of micronutrients - rich foods like fruits and vegetables is far from adequate, making the population, particularly children and women, highly vulnerable to micronutrient deficiencies, particularly vitamin A deficiency night blindness and iron deficiency anemia.The current daily per capita total energy intake is derived from a consumption of a total food amount of 947.7 g/d of which cereals contribute to 469.2 g (16.55 oz). Taking an average energy content of 3.48 kcal/g cereal, the total energy supply from cereals in the Bangladesh diet is 1633 kcal/d which is 73% of the total dietary energy consumed.
Some hygiene and sanitation indicators for selected countries in SE Asia show a mixed picture; on the whole the population with access to improved (adequate) sanitation is much lower than the population having access to improved (safe) water; Bangladesh appears to be better in comparison to even Thailand; however, the situation in Thailand, Bhutan, Sri Lanka comparatively better than the other countries; Nepal and India need to make progress
The source of drinking water is important for good health. About 97% households get drinking water from improved source. The urban HHs have the better opportunity of drinking water from improved sources than the rural HHs. Besides, the higher % of urban HHs are habituated in appropriate water treatment (boiling, etc) prior to drinking than the rural HHs.
UW rate had quite steadily decreased from 64 % in 1999 to 42% in 2007; this was followed by a slight increase in 2007 (for UW) and in 2008 and 2009 for stunting. This is attributed to the impacts of the price hike notably as chronic undernutrition and the reversal of the gains made over the past decade.
BGD has achieved commendable success in bringing down some of the common problems of MNM namely VAD and IDD; XN which was prevalent to the extent of 4.1 % in the 1960s is now non existent. The main actions behind this success have been two pronged :blend of VAC , EPI and national scale home gardening programmes.
Diabetes is becoming a serious health concern in BGD; Between 2004 to 2008, the proportion of people suffering from diabetes increased from 4% to 7%; considering the country’s average population growth of around 1.6% the increase is even more marked in absolute terms: from 5.3 to 10.2 M people.
Comparing 10 varieties, analysis at DU, BRRI and BIRDEM showed that effect of rice on BSL differs widely between varieties. Following the introduction and promotion of HYV, BGD has seen a remarkable increase in production of rice; howeevr in 2007 -2008, 66% of the total boro rice cropped area; 29 % of total rice cropped area for 2007-2008 was dedicated to the production of 2 rice varieties; varieties that do not lead to high bsl rises were limited to only 4% of the total rice cropped area
Bangladesh is seen to be facing typical problems of using synthetic chemicals in accelerating ripening of climacteric fruits such as mango, banana, papaya, tomato and jackfruit; in the case of jackfruit chemical ripening is used (Ripen -15) is sprayed over the fruit by the bepari and wholesalers; the chemical spray is then followed by fruit piercing; as a result the chemicals directly penetrate the fruit which causes quick rpiening but poses danger of leaving chemical residues higher than MRLs that are to the detriment of consumer health ; the shelf life of chemically ripenied fruits is also very short due to faster rot as compared to those ripened by conventional methods, the post harvest loss of JF in the marketing channel is also v high; jackfruit piercer gets 25 paisa per fruit pierced; everyday around 200 JF are pierced by each piercer (Baluka, Mymensingh)
Consumer’s willingness to pay more for purchasing safe fruits and vegetables: while it was noted that consumers were aware of the harmful effects they were willing to pay up to 20% more as compared to the usual payment for safe fruits and vegetables; they were however reluctant to pay more than 20%; a little more than a third were willing to pay 10 % more ; this would have implications with regard to marketing of quality and safe produce; only 20% more money could be spent for marekting as compared to the usual price for a particular commodity for the entire supply chain
