A simulation model for studying short and medium term food security issues in developing countries
The contribution of simulation models to planning for food security is discussed and references are cited for a number of existing models addressing short, medium and long term aspects of the food security problem. A new model is discussed which addresses short and medium term food security issues. This model enables the user to explore the effect of alternative import policies, reserve stock levels and logistical constraints upon operating costs…
A model for studying national‐level nutrition planning issues in poor countries
A computer simulation model is presented for studying national level issues as they affect the well being of the poor in developing countries. The model permits the user to explore the impact of various national‐level policies (such as government allocations to food production expansion, food aid to the poor, export expansion and public health and actions to change tax rates and to regulate food prices) upon a range of performance measures. The m…
Toward a comprehensive approach to nutrition/health planning for poor countries
The paper addresses the problem of design for poor countries health/nutrition programs which are compatible both with national development goals and the constraints imposed by the village milieu in which human needs must be met. National level nutrition, health, family planning, food production and other programs are considered along with their sometimes conflicting impacts on variables such as nutritional status, infant/child mortality, personal…
On strategies and programs for coping with large scale food shortages
A basic premise of the paper is that for various reasons many people in developing countries will experience food shortages in the years ahead. A” main thrust of this paper is in considering strategies for managing available food resources from domestic and foreign sources during a period of scarcity in a particular population group, region or country. Historical experience, deductive argument and simulation studies are used to seek policy guidel…
