This report authored by members of the Food Sovereignty Alliance India along with the Catholic Health Association of India is an in-depth analysis of the traditional diets of marginal farmers, landless and agro-pastoralists.
The enquiry provided clear evidence of the following:
- Marginal farming communities continue to be a rich repository of knowledge, resilient food systems, biodiversity and agro-ecology.
- Their food systems are nutritionally diverse and rich in nutrients.
- These traditional food systems have been eroded over time.
- Land, water and forest rights are seriously under threat.
- Lived experience and knowledge is an integral part of lives and livelihoods and socio-ecological resilience.
