Marginal farmers own 35% of the agri land  in India and makeup 80-90% of the population who are into agri. They are not that productive and more often than not do not produce enough. PDS is nonsense. It gives like 1 kg of grains per month may be and is also geared toward urban populations. Obviously these people are going hungry and is one of the major reasons for hunger in india. The other one is not being able to afford food because the work these people do doesn’t pay enough. 

if PDS is nonsense, then atleast part of the problem is distribution.

your point about small farmers being unproductive is all fine, but I don't see how without a good distribution system, hunger can ever be solved.

anyway GHI i just checked was based on statistics on malnutrition, and mortality rates of kids under 5. may be its not hunger that's killing them. No idea how corporatization can help.
