Full textRising Food Prices and Undernourishment: A Cross-Country Inquiry Households' welfare in developing countries has been hit by dramatic food prices increases which occurred between 2005 and 2008. In this paper, we adopt a partial equilibrium approach to analyze the short-time eects of a staple food price increase on nutritional attainments, as a measure of welfare. The analysis consists of rst approximating complete food-demand systems and then performing household level micro-simulations. Instead of focusing on a single country prole, we provide a more complete snapshot through a cross-country assessment made possible by the use of nationally representative household surveys. Comparability is assured by the adoption of the same methodological choices in the treatment of the micro data. We nd that food price increase not only reduces the mean consumption of dietary energy, but also worsen the distribution of food calories, further deteriorating the nutritional status of populations. We also discovered that access to agricultural land plays a big role in assuring adequate nutritional attainments in rural areas, and surprisingly, even in urban areas. Keywords: Food prices, food policy, calories intake, demand system, household surveys, cross-country analysis Estimating the Heterogeneous Eects of Aggregate Shocks on Caloric Adequacy: The Case of Hurricane Mitch in Nicaragua Previous evaluation studies on the impact of the hurricane Mitch were focused on the short and medium-term average eects on dierent welfare outcomes [household consumption growth (Premand, 2008), child's wellbeing (Baez and Santos, 2007), household budget and schooling (Ureta, 2005)] using 1998, 1999 and 2001 LSMS panel data on Nicaraguan households. In this study, longer term eects are analyzed by adding the 2005 survey to the well-known dataset. We investigate through the dierence-in-dierence methodology if the eects of the hurricane and of the humanitarian response persist on average 7 years after. Additionally, we go beyond the standard average impact by focusing on the heterogeneity of the impact across households. For this purpose, the quantile treatment eect (QTE) estimation is implemented over the outcome distribution. Another contribution of this research is the analysis of the hurricane's impact on intra-household outcomes when only household-level data are available. The methodology introduced by Chesher (1997) is extended to the impact evaluation set-up in order to estimate age-gender specic outcomes. The scope of this methodology is also to shed some light on the short- and longer-term eectiveness of humanitarian response on the welfare levels. This chapter also focuses on nutritional attainment as the outcome of interest. In fact, the study aims to estimate in a comprehensive manner the impact of the hurricane Mitch on household caloric adequacy, which is dened as the ratio between the dietary energy consumption (caloric intake) and the minimum human requirements. Measuring Dietary Energy Deciency at the Household Level: A Methodological Note on the Micro-Analysis of Undernourishment FAO is the main provider of country-level estimates of undernourishment covering the whole world. Its methodology has the main advantage of facilitating comparisons across countries and over time, but also has a limited capacity to understand the causes of food insecurity within countries (FAO, 2003; Barret, 2010). The upward trends in global food prices, concerning many staple commodities between 2005 and 2008, stimulated us to extend the principles of the FAO methodology in order to assess the impact of rising food prices on household-level food security. The objective of this methodological chapter is to provide a detailed description of the methodology applied in the previous chapters for measuring undernourishment, and more specically dietary energy deciency at the household level. Additionally, this chapter provides some guidelines to construct household specic dietary energy requirements, instead of using a single threshold (generally, 2100 kilocalories per person per day) for all households. Constructing a good household-level indicator will also be useful to conduct scientically solid impact evaluations on food security programmes and policies in dierent areas of the world.
