Nutrition and livelihood initiatives with a focus on nutrition have been going on in various states in India for decades. However, the focus on agriculture for nutrition outcomes––better known as nutrition-sensitive agriculture––is a very recent priority in the country, and that to negligible investment in the state of Assam.
