A situation that exists when people lack secure access to sufficient amounts of safe and nutritious food for normal growth and development and an active and healthy life. It maybe caused not only by the unavailability of food but also by insufficient purchasing power, inappropriate distribution, or inadequate use of food at the household level. Food insecurity maybe chronic, seasonal or transitory. Desert Locust can contribute to seasonal or transitory food insecurity. (SOFI, Annex 3, FAO, 2013 (MI637). www.fao.org/3/i3434e/i3434e.pdf)

Rainfall that flows over the ground surface. It is created when rain falls on roads, driveways, parking lots, rooftops and other paved surfaces that do not allow water to soak into the ground. Stormwater runoff is the number one cause of stream impairment in urban areas. (CWP-USFS. 2008. Watershed forestry resource guide. Center for Watershed Protection
(CWP) and US Forest Service (USFS) (available at http://forestsforwatersheds.org).)
Ricotta is an Italian whey cheese made from sheep, cow, goat, or Italian water buffalo milk whey left over from the production of other cheeses.
