CHAPTER:1 INTRODUCTION
and institutions. As a result, the NFC found itself having to shape and re-shape according to dominant discourses and their national/local interpretations. Three decades onwards, these processes have led the NFC to become fragmented. Unable to forgo its social objectives, it has now also been pushed towards seeking alternative avenues to become profitable. As such, these dual and often contradictory objectives, within the institution, have led to confusion, resulting in both sets of goals not being fulfilled. More significantly, for the rural households these reform measures have resulted in the curtailing of the subsidized foodgrain program without mitigating access barriers; forcing many to become more reliant on market mechanisms, in a climate where food production is already decreasing and prices are rising.
The Nepal Food Corporation was setup under the Food Corporation Act (CORRECT)1964, in order to fulfill following objectives of the Food Policy:
Effective price support operations for safeguarding the interests of the farmers. Distribution of food grains throughout the country for public distribution system. Maintaining satisfactory level of operational and buffer stocks of food grains to ensure National Food security
In its 38 years of service to the nation, NFC has played a significant role in Nepal's success in transforming the crisis management oriented food security into a stable security system. NFC's Objectives are:
To provide farmers remunerative prices. To make food grains available at reasonable prices, particularly to vulnerable section of the society. To maintain buffer stocks as measure of Food Security. To intervene in market for price stabilization.
