Summary
Timor-Leste is a food deficit country and one third of its population of 1.3 million suffers from food insecurity that could be classified as crisis or stressed food situation. Results from food systems assessments undertaken by FAO, the European Union, and CIRAD in 50 countries show that many countries with similar topography face similar food production and productivity challenges. Conventional wisdom has dictated a prescriptive remedy to food systems at the production side while encouraging private sector to take care of the rest, with a little bit of public sector nudging and support. Lessons can be drawn from other Asian countries, such as Bhutan and Nepal, that could be relevant to improving food systems in the Timor-Leste context.
