Abstract: This paper focuses on this agriculture-nutrition link in Nepal in the context of the country’s decade-long civil conflict. Using panel household data from the Nepal Living Standards Survey (NLSS), combined with conflict data from the Informal Sector Service Centre (INSEC) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the relationship between livestock ownership, milk consumption, and child anthropometric outcomes in the context of conflict are assessed.
