FOOD INSECURITY: EXODUS IN BAJURA VILLAGE- NEPAL



Acute shortage of food in Bichhainya VDC of Bajura district, western Nepal has compelled the youth to migrate to neighbouring India. The village is one of the remote VDCs of the district and has the least agricultural production. The food shortage in the VDC escalated after the Support Activities for Poor Producers of Nepal, an NGO that used to distribute food in the area in coordination with the World Food Programme, stopped its activities two years ago citing technical reasons.
