All of the above
Answer is Right!
Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is: d) All of the above
Low incomes and poverty can limit people’s ability to purchase sufficient nutritious food, grow their own food, and access government food schemes.
- Purchase sufficient nutritious food. People with low incomes often have to choose between buying food and other necessities, such as housing and transportation. This can lead to them not being able to afford enough food, or not being able to afford nutritious food.
- Grow their own food. People with low incomes may not have access to land or resources to grow their own food. Even if they do have access to land, they may not have the time or energy to devote to gardening.
- Access government food schemes. Government food schemes are often designed to help low-income people access nutritious food. However, these schemes can be difficult to navigate, and people may not be aware of them or may not be eligible for them.
All of these factors can contribute to food insecurity, which is a lack of reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food. Food insecurity can have a serious impact on people’s health, well-being, and ability to function in society.
