We work with farmers, communities, and policymakers to promote nutrition-sensitive and health-focused agricultural systems that improve diets, strengthen community wellbeing, and build resilient food systems.
Nutrition and health challenges in agriculture include limited access to diverse and nutrient-rich foods, poor dietary practices, food safety risks, and occupational hazards that affect farmers’ physical wellbeing. Unsustainable agricultural practices can further undermine soil health, food quality, and long-term community nutrition.

Through research, PiLAF identifies gaps in food systems, nutrition barriers, and health risks affecting agricultural communities. Outreach initiatives raise awareness about healthy diets, food safety, and sustainable practices, while training programs strengthen capacity for nutrition-sensitive farming, safe food production, and improved community health outcomes.

Why are nutrition and health important in agriculture?
What are the major nutrition and health challenges in agriculture?

Agricultural communities often face limited access to diverse and nutrient-rich foods, food safety concerns, and inadequate knowledge of healthy dietary practices. Farmers may also experience occupational health risks such as chemical exposure, unsafe equipment, and physically demanding workloads. These challenges affect food quality, productivity, and the overall health and wellbeing of farming households and communities.
