Looking beyond the big staples

Improving nutrition through diet diversification and better food systems is key to good health and for this, we need to look beyond the big staples, says Dr Prabhu Pingali in this video blog.

“Defining pathways to link agriculture and nutrition are important to improving nutrition and augment livelihoods in the rural parts of India,” Dr Pingali adds.

ICRISAT and the Tata-Cornell Institute are working towards developing innovative technologies and practical solutions through field-based projects, academic research and policy analysis to address this nutritional gap.
