FOOD SECURITY & NUTRITION
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), food security is based on four pillars. Pillar 1, food availability, is mainly fostered by agricultural methods leading to an increase in agricultural production and productivity. Pillar 2, the access to food is supported, among others, by price and market incentives, and the modernization of infrastructure, such as roads, markets, and storage systems. The third pillar of food use refers to nutritional aspects, such as the adequate preparation of dishes in the household and a balanced diet for all household members. The last pillar refers to the year-round stability of the three pillars above, in particular during seasons when food becomes limited on the market (which is often at the end of the dry season).

The rehabilitation and development of agricultural production systems should work to enhance food security, by supporting poor farmers in adapting and diversifying their production systems to become more resilient to adverse conditions
