This working paper constituted a background study for World Development Report 1981. It considers food policy issues in Zambia, Bangladesh, and India from the viewpoints of short-term adjustment to the energy crisis and the longer-term effects of food policy on poverty, malnutrition, and food security. Parts 2-4 present the country case studies; Part 1 is an overview drawing upon the case studies. As a general conclusion, the paper suggests that external pressures during the 1970s intensified problems of agricultural production and food supply, but that in none of the countries studied were such external pressures the cause for a serious food supply problem.
