本研究旨在评估COVID-19封锁对印度农业生产、生计、粮食安全和饮食多样性的影响。于2020年5月3日至15日，由印度12个邦和200个地区的训练有素的普查员进行了电话访问调查。共有1 437名农民完成了调查（94%为男性; 28%为30-39岁; 38%受过中学教育）。在过去的一个月里，大约十分之一的农民（11%）没有收获，主要原因是不利的天气（37%）和与封锁有关的原因（24%）。在过去的一个月里，共有63%的农民收获了小麦和蔬菜，但只有44%的农民出售了他们的作物; 12%的农民仍在试图出售他们的作物，39%的农民储存了他们的作物，超过一半（55%）的农民报告说，与封锁有关的问题是储存的原因。在过去一个月里，79%的工薪家庭的工资下降，49%的牲畜收入家庭的工资下降。无地农民不吃饭的可能性是大农场主的10倍（18%对2%），但大多数人报告说，他们从政府那里得到了额外的食物配给。几乎所有的农民都报告说，在过去一周里每天食用主食谷物（97%），63%的人每天食用乳制品，40%的人每天食用蔬菜，26%的人每天食用豆类，7%的人每天食用水果。这些数值远低于COVID-19之前印度农民报告的数值：每天94-95%的乳制品，每天57-58%的豆类，每天64-65%的蔬菜，每天42-43%的水果。总括而言，我们发现印度COVID-19封城主要影响农民出售农作物及畜产品的能力，并导致每日工资及饮食多样性下降。在线版本包含补充材料，可通过10.1007/s12571-021-01164-w获得。
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 lockdown on agricultural production, livelihoods, food security, and dietary diversity in India. Phone interview surveys were conducted by trained enumerators across 12 states and 200 districts in India from 3 to 15 May 2020. A total of 1437 farmers completed the survey (94% male; 28% 30–39 years old; 38% with secondary schooling). About one in ten farmers (11%) did not harvest in the past month with primary reasons cited being unfavorable weather (37%) and lockdown-related reasons (24%). A total of 63% of farmers harvested in the past month (primarily wheat and vegetables), but only 44% had sold their crop; 12% were still trying to sell their crop, and 39% had stored their crop, with more than half (55%) reporting lockdown-related issues as the reason for storing. Seventy-nine percent of households with wage-workers witnessed a decline in wages in the past month and 49% of households with incomes from livestock witnessed a decline. Landless farmers were about 10 times more likely to skip a meal as compared to large farmers (18% versus 2%), but a majority reported receiving extra food rations from the government. Nearly all farmers reported consuming staple grains daily in the past week (97%), 63% consumed dairy daily, 40% vegetables daily, 26% pulses daily, and 7% fruit daily. These values are much lower than reported previously for farmers in India around this time of year before COVID-19: 94–95% dairy daily, 57–58% pulses daily, 64–65% vegetables daily, and 42–43% fruit daily. In conclusion, we found that the COVID-19 lockdown in India has primarily impacted farmers’ ability to sell their crops and livestock products and decreased daily wages and dietary diversity.
