This note examines the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on food security and indebtedness among rural households. It is based on a telephone survey of 164 households from 26 villages across 13 States. The survey was conducted by the Pandemic Studies Unit of the Foundation for Agrarian Studies (FAS), Bangalore, in October 2020. Of these 26 villages included in the 2020 telephone survey, 24 are part of the socio-economic surveys of villages conducted under the Project on Agrarian Relations in India (PARI) of the Foundation for Agrarian Studies (FAS) in the past decade. An advantage of the PARI database is that previous household surveys provide an understanding of the social and economic characteristics of the village economy. The FAS conducted a rapid assessment survey of 52 households from 21 villages across 10 States of India in April 2020 through telephone interviews. Based on the evidence from this survey, Modak, Baksi, and Johnson (2020) found that many rural households faced increased indebtedness because of low levels of income and limited income support. This note discusses the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on food consumption and the public distribution system (PDS), indebtedness and sale of assets, and income support in October 2020, six months after the previous survey.
