Hunger and malnutrition are increasing across the world and the global target of Zero Hunger by 2030 is beginning to look unattainable. Some experts believe that rediscovering under-utilised indigenous and traditional crops can play a crucial role in addressing this crisis.

Many of these crops have become marginalised in the wake of the production and marketing of a limited number of foods. The 25 food crops featured in Past Foods include fruits, legumes, grains and vegetables. These crops have been around for thousands of years but are not always promoted as much as they should be considering their nutritional benefits.
