![In terms of institutions for providing food security there are
important differences across states:
• Studies have shown varying and large exclusion and inclusion
errors in the country's public distribution system that provides
subsidized food grains particularly to below poverty line families.
• Other programs, suffer from targeting efficiency programs, where
the poorest are not benefiting as intended [Banerjee et al. (2007)]
• Both Andhra Pradesh and Gujarat recorded over 60% under‐
coverage.
• This has caused states to launch their own initiatives. For example,
Andhra Pradesh launched a system of extremely subsidized rice at
2 rupees per kg in 2006 which was revised to 1 rupee per kg in
2011.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/indiafoodsecurityportal2-130523001834-phpapp01/75/IFPRI-India-Food-Security-Portal-13-2048.jpg)
IFPRI: India Food Security Portal
The document discusses establishing an India Food Security Portal to strengthen food security policy research and analysis capacity in India. It aims to: 1) Create a food security knowledge hub through collaboration between Indian institutions and a growing policy network. 2) Develop a broad network of policymakers engaged in food security policy at local, national and international levels to influence Indian policy. 3) Contribute to and effectively influence relevant food security policy processes in India. 4) Maintain and improve the Global Food Security Portal while linking it to the Indian portal and network.
