This document discusses food security in Asia. It notes that Asia accounts for 65% of the world's undernourished people. While undernourishment, childhood stunting, and underweight have declined in Asia over the past two decades, levels remain higher than in other developing regions. The document examines how agricultural policies can promote food security through enhancing productivity and raising domestic prices. It argues that solely relying on economic growth and poverty reduction is not enough to reduce undernourishment, and that policies should aim to expand output without increasing food prices in order to be most effective.
