This study specifically examined the food consumption pattern, levels of nutrition intake and nutrient intake gap of sample households in 12 villages of Eastern India based on data collected during the agricultural year 2011–12. The results point to serious levels of nutrient intake deficit in the sample villages, though with notable disparities in its level of incidence. Major socio-economic and demographic variables that determine the calorie deficit status of the households were identified, the knowledge of which is important while planning interventions. date: 2019-07-10 date_type: published publication: Current Science volume: 117 number: 1 publisher: Current Science Association pagerange: 71-79 refereed: TRUE issn: 0011-3891 related_url_url: https://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=Household-level+food+and+nutrition+insecurity+and+its+determinants+in+eastern+India&btnG= related_url_type: pub citation: Parappurathu, S and Kumar, A and Bantilan, M C S and Joshi, P K (2019) Household-level food and nutrition insecurity and its determinants in eastern India.
