As we are submitting our project for Khadya Suraksha (food security).

Food security is not just a matter of the availability of food, but even more of the access of households and individuals to sufficient nutritious food. The absorption of food as nutrition in the body is further mediated by access to safe drinking water, and hygienic sanitation facilities. Consequently, food security is analyzed along the axis of availability, access and absorption. The importance of entitlements in food security is further underlined by the Supreme Court’s judgments validating the Right to Food. As a signatory to the UN’s Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), the Government of India and all state governments have an obligation to reduce by half the proportion of people suffering from hunger by 2015. 

To contribute to reaching the above goals, the Institute for Human Development (IHD) and the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) have together undertaken an analysis of the dimensions of food security at the sub-state, or district level, for 8 states of India – Orissa, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra. The purpose of this exercise is to: 

• Identify the regions and social groups most affected by food insecurity; and 

• Suggest policy interventions appropriate to improving food security for those regions and social groups. 

Jharkhand was created as an independent state on November 15, 2000. Abundantly endowed with mineral resources, forests, rainfall, and land, the state has the wherewithal to launch it on the trajectory of sustained growth. Nevertheless, Jharkhand compares very unfavourably with other states on almost all indicators of socio-economic development. With 46 percent people below the poverty line (200405), Jharkhand has the second highest rural poverty ratio among Indian states. Under- five mortality is very high, at 93 deaths per 1000 live births. After Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand has the highest proportion of children who are underweight. More than two thirds of all children are anaemic. Agricultural production has grown impressively in recent years, and at 4 percent the growth has been higher than the all-India average of 2.2 percent. However, the state has a long way to go before it can meet the food security needs of its people. 

Recognizing that reduction of acute poverty is the key to reducing hunger, the analysis in this atlas began by choosing the likely variables that affect food security along the three axes of availability, access and absorption. The composite index is based on 12 identified indicators which reflect these three dimensions. The availability related variables considered here are agricultural production in per capita value terms, proportion of forest area, extent of irrigation and rural connectivity in terms of villages with access to paved roads. The six variables considered for the access to food dimension include proportion of agricultural labourers, proportion of Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Scheduled Castes (SC), ratio of working age population, monthly per capita consumption expenditure, casual wage rate of rural persons and female literacy rate. Access to safe drinking water and primary health services are the two variables considered for the absorption index.
