Abstract

This paper identifies the factors that influence the household and individual food consumption. Since food is the most
important item of the consumption basket, an analysis of the changes in food consumption pattern over time has a special
significance which is the most important component for low and middle income groups. Food expenditure pattern is an
excellent indicator of economic well being of people. Economic Development not only brings about significant changes in

developing and agrarian dominant economy has been bringing many changes in the socio-economic life of her population
since independence.
