Abstract
Nutrition has traditionally been considered a residual of economic development rather than an integral component. Direct nutritional policies have, at best, been discounted while in some countries they are conspicious by their absence. Many countries have concentrated on intensive capital investments for industrialization and agricultural development. This has created an internal dichotomy resulting from disequilibrated economic development and welfare distribution. While recent development efforts have been increasingly devoted toward those bypassed by the development process, e.g., the small farmer, many developing countries continue dualistic economic characteristics.
