Abstract
The food system of the 20th century has failed to eliminate the tragedy of malnutrition in developing countries. Partial explanations for this failure lie in 3 critical but often ignored realities about efforts to improve nutrition: 1) agriculture is likely to continue as the principal nutrient source for decades to come; 2) nutrition strategies have very important economic implications and to overlook them is to ask for disaster; and 3) economists need to take into account the nutritional implications of their plans. The biggest reality is actually the lack of communication between nutritionists and economists.
