Question

In the rural areas seasonal hunger is found due to _____.

• A. Inadequate income
• B. Unemployment
• C. Cycles of food growing and harvesting
• D. Cycles of distribution

Answer 1

The correct option is C Cycles of food growing and harvesting

Seasonal hunger is related to cycles of food growing and harvesting. This is prevalent in rural areas because of the seasonal nature of agricultural activities and in urban areas because of the casual labour, e.g., there is less work for casual construction labour during the rainy season. This type of hunger exists when a person is unable to get work for the entire year.
