This document provides an overview of biofortification as a strategy to address micronutrient deficiencies. It discusses: - Biofortification is the process of breeding staple crops to naturally contain higher levels of vitamins and minerals through conventional plant breeding techniques. - Over 30 million farming households have gained access to biofortified staple crops rich in vitamin A, iron, and zinc. Research shows these nutrients in biofortified crops can meet 50-100% of daily needs and improve micronutrient status. - The process involves developing nutrient-dense crop varieties, testing them in different environments, delivering seeds to farmers, and generating demand among consumers. Over 175 biofortified varieties of 12 crops have
