- W2589179851 abstract "Malnutrition is worst in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, but over the next 40 years food production in these regions will need to more than double to meet the needs of population growth. In both regions smallholder farmers will continue to provide the bulk of food production as climate change brings more extremes of drought and flooding, making crop production more risky. Malnutrition is primarily a “hidden hunger” that severely stunts human potential due to a lack of vital protein and micronutrients such as vitamins or minerals. Starvation and obesity are extreme expressions of malnutrition. A past focus on increasing production of staple crops has exacerbated the problem of imbalanced diets and malnutrition, and decreased diversity in cropping systems. Vegetables are our most important source of micronutrients and a vital source of protein, but production in most countries is well below the minimum to provide a basic balanced diet for all. Hardy vegetables produced by smallholder farmers should have a vital role to play in overcoming malnutrition, particularly in South Asia, Africa, and the Pacific. Although often seen as undervalued weeds in the past, easily grown indigenous vegetables are an extremely important source of nutrition for the poorest. Wider use of improved lines can significantly increase nutritional security. Improved varieties of globally important vegetables and new production systems that permit production under extremes of drought or flooding also are needed. All people are interested in their food, but a professional disconnect has developed between agriculturalists and health professionals who view the human food chain from the opposite ends of production or consumption. A common focus on nutritional security provides a professional meeting point and an opportunity to market horticulture to a generation of students who may have little background in food production, but are certainly interested in its consumption. INTRODUCTION Horticulturalists play a crucial role in ensuring future food and nutritional security for those most vulnerable to stresses imposed by climate change and resource scarcity, but they cannot do it alone or by continuing to apply old forms of thinking about their profession. The future regions and communities most vulnerable to climate stress and resource shortages will be those currently most disadvantaged in sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, where agricultural production is dominated by smallholders and past food policies favored self-sufficiency in staples. Smallholders have highly diverse cropping systems and the vegetables they supply to their communities provide essential micronutrients for balanced diets that staples cannot.
