It provides for the approval of the National Food Security and Nutrition Policy, led by the Ministry of Agrarian Development and Irrigation in coordination with the Multisectoral Commission on Food Security and Nutrition and CEPLAN, and establishes intersectoral coordination mechanisms for responding to food emergencies, maintaining a national food stock, and pursuing bilateral or multilateral agreements to safeguard food supply. It also creates the Food Security and Nutrition Observatory as a tool for generating evidence and monitoring results.
