Abstract

At the global level the per capita food production has gone up in all countries with the industrialized countries on the lead. However, the low nutritional status remained major problem particularly among the rural population. The low nutritional status of the rural population is to be viewed as the problem of poor quality of food intake due to low literacy and lack of awareness. Due to Green Revolution the food grains production is increased. The consumption of rice in Andhra Pradesh is higher than All India. Bajra and maize are also less consumed in Andhra Pradesh. The consumption of the major cereals declined at both State level and All India level over a period of time. The consumption of bajra and maize per person has also noticeable decline in rural areas over the period. The smaller cereal items such as barley, maize and tapioca, recorded larger declines in rural areas over this period.
