  • Abstract:
  • This paper investigates food security in northern part of Karnataka (13 districts) over the period of 2011-2021. For this we have used “food balance sheet and Zscore” methods. The result suggests that the food security of the region has grown over the period e.g the average Production of food grains (kg per head per annum) was 335.15 in 2011 which rose to 472.42 which is 40.94 percentage. Not only food production had gone up Yield of food grains, irrigated area and milk production. Though result indicates the growth in over all food security, still there are certain districts which has huge gap between indicators like Raichur had average Production of food grains (kg per head per annum) was 1052.5 in 2021 but Bidar had only 84. This was enormous or steep gap between two districts. There are some districts in region e.g., Bidar, Kalaburagi and Koppal these districts have shown below average growth compare to remaining districts. This is what article is about, what is food security of region and its distribution.
