Official assistance offsets Covid food insecurity: Study (Financial Express) 

April 11, 2021


Financial Express published an article stating that the government’s support strengthened the food security of rural households in 2021, following the Covid-induced lockdown during April-May last year, according to an IFPRI-Cornell University study based on phone-surveys in 2020 and 2021. The policy note suggested that the immediate onset of coronavirus, combined with the lockdown restrictions imposed from March through May in 2020, contributed to increases in unemployment, income losses, and food insecurity.
