    Abstract A vast majority of the relief and rehabilitation packages announced in the months following the nationwide lockdown in India have focused on economic rehabilitation. However, the education sector has remained absent from this effort, including in India's central government's 250 billion dollar stimulus package. In this paper, we discuss the implications of lockdown-induced school and rural child-care center closures on education and health outcomes for the urban and rural poor. We especially focus on food and nutritional security of children who depend on school feeding and supplementary nutrition programs. We argue that the impacts are likely to be much more severe for girls as well as for children from already disadvantaged ethnic and caste groups. We also discuss ways in which existing social security programs can be leveraged and strengthened to ameliorate these impacts.

    Abstract In 2015–16, 21 million small and medium enterprises engaged in the business of manufacturing, trading, retailing, and serving food linked India's 146 million farmers to its nearly 1.3 billion consumers. These food enterprises employed 25 million men and 10 million women and had an annual turnover of $ 227 billion. Between 2010–11 and 2015–16, the gross value added (GVA) by the post-farmgate food businesses (PFFBs) increased by $16.3 billion (from $ 22.9 billion to $ 39.2 billion) which is comparable to the growth of $19.5 billion in the GVA by the primary food production (or the farm) sector which is nearly 10 times larger in size. Despite their growing contribution to the overall food economy, PFFBs are ignored in research and policy discussions on food systems. This paper tries to fill this gap by using two large nationally representative datasets from India—the Enterprise Survey and the Periodic Labor Force Survey (PLFS)—to assess the key characteristics of PFFBs and the entrepreneurs and employees who work in them. We show that despite rapid economic growth in the country, micro-enterprises with less than 5 employees continue to dominate India's food economy. Most of these firms are informal, rely purely on spot exchanges with their sellers and buyers, and do not borrow money from formal financial institutions. We find a strong positive association between the formal status and the productivity and profitability of PFFBs.

    Abstract India has recorded high levels of unemployment and low labor force participation rates in recent years even before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the lockdown. How does an episode of unemployment or loss of income affect household consumption expenditure is an important question for designing effective safety nets. We use data on household-specific episodes of job loss and decline in income, from an earlier year (March-April 2019) to estimate the household response to employment shocks. We apply diff-in-diff and quantile regressions to a high-frequency panel data from a nationally representative survey of 1,75,000 households to estimate the impact of a job loss (and change in income) on household consumption expenditure—for urban and rural households, and households across different expenditure levels. We find that loss of employment of an earning member leads to a significant immediate decline in household consumption expenditure. The decline is much larger for urban households and households in the lowest and the highest deciles of monthly per capita. Durable expenses go down the most. Expenditure on health and education also goes down significantly and there is evidence of adjustments in discretionary expenses too, especially for urban households. For households with only one earning member, borrowing does not increase after the job loss, suggesting credit constraints. Government cash transfers help rural households, as the beneficiaries show a smaller reduction in consumption expenditure after the shock. Our findings highlight the high vulnerability of urban households to economic shocks and can inform the design and targeting of income support and other safety-net programs in India and other developing countries.

    Abstract While rural India is poorer than its urban counterpart, in the COVID-19 crisis, it is the urban poor who are far more vulnerable with less social and government support. India’s 21-day lockdown is a significantly bigger shock to the economy, and will hurt urban families far more for the following five reasons.
