Fig. 5. Low-income, food-deficit developing market economies: production and
consumption of major staples is shown for the period 1960-1975 and projected to 1990.
The deficit is smallest if consumption remains at the 1975 per capita level, and the
deficit is greatest if consumption increases rapidly because of high income-growth.
