Abstract
Household food security is determined by availability, access and
utilisation of food. Although the Terai is Nepal’s ‘bread basket’, the poor lack access to foods.
Hence, in Dhanusha district, MIRA/UCL monitored food security and related factors between
2005‐6 and 2011 as part of prospective surveillance of households with recently delivered
women.
