Until recently, attention has been focused on investment in research of the traditional staple crops — maize, rice and wheat — to tackle hunger. But it is now widely accepted that we must go beyond calorie intake and look at the nutritional balance of the crops grown and consumed. A better balance between the research and development of staple crops and horticultural crops — fruit, legumes and vegetables — is the obvious key to alleviating malnutrition. Neglected or underutilized local varieties of fruit and vegetables often offer a good source of nutrition. We need to support farmers in growing new varieties and different crop mixes, giving them the information they need to manage the unfamiliar pests and diseases that may attack their plants. Animals, fish and poultry are also valuable sources of protein, vitamins and fatty acids. The development of a more diverse and competitive private seed sector, as well as capacity building efforts to help farmers improve soil health, are also crucial, since better quality seeds and soil lead to better quality produce.
