Does this seem like a researchable topic for summer

Studying the gap between the State policy about nutrition and food security and the reality at village level

Does the State policy address the concern of the most vulnerable or work against them? (here I am thinking about the cut in electricity and increase in credit to farmers despite increasing farmer suicides cos of debt)

I would do a literature review and look at past trends and budgets
Then pick a village and see if the schemes meet the needs of village and the intended objectives of the policy makers.

When I say State policy, I am mostly thinking the budgetary allocation towards various food, agrarian and livelihood schemes because the policy is executed mainly via the budget

I think some such reserach might even link the research we do for ICRW and the food security secretariat. comments please!
