Good attempt. Introduction is fine but don’t say that agriculture suffered due to pandemic, actually agriculture was one of the few sectors to show a positive growth. You can attribute malnutrition to increasing poverty, loss of livelihoods etc
Relationship between agri-food systems and food security are fine, challenges are also okay.
In changes, you can add multiple points, try to incorporate the keywords such as integrated farming, permaculture, ZBNF, post-harvest architecture, crop-diversification etc. Also mention a point regarding need to improve nutritional security- mention things like need of kitchen gardens, nutrition-sensitive safety net programmes, women’s empowerment, enforcement of standards, improving Water, Sanitation and Hygiene, nutrition education, biofortification etc in that point.
Conclusion is good.
Keep practicing. 🙂
