actual approaches have been changing with the recognition of unexpected results
such as environmental degradation and nutrition problems. Agricultural policies
that represent the production or supply side have been implemented apart from
nutrition policies, which are relevant to the consumption or demand side. In other
words, implementation of these policies has caused a decoupling of production and
consumption. Because agricultural policies and nutrition policies have their own
framings and because these framings are not integrated, many problems have
occurred. Livelihoods used to rely on natural resources in the past, whereas consumption of food or nutrition intake is now detached from production or supply of
food at household, regional, national, and international levels. People who used to
live in self-sufficient economies now begin to purchase necessary goods and services with money they have earned by using their own resources including their own
labor at the household level. At the same time, this transformation of the economy
at the household level is enhanced through cross-regional and international
trading.
Because of the multidimensional perspectives of poverty, enhancing market
function as a general principle of development strategies–including strategies relevant to food security–appears a rational and palatable approach. Thus, structural
strategies have been applied to reduce market failure and government failure. It
must be considered how decoupled production or supply can be combined with
consumption or demand. In this connection, people’s understanding of value that
should reflect the shadow price must be transformed. Psychological strategies of
providing proper information must be implemented with the SDGs, which are
assumed to combine selected aims and targets based on particular contexts by stakeholders such as national governments, local municipalities, private companies, and
international organizations.
