On the short term, it will be necessary to overbalance the negative effects of the crises, over the most vulnerable population. Over all these politics are suggested a special attention over the food stocks, the food provision and to the guarantee access of food by the conditional cash transfer programs. To the medium-long term, the national government must invest in the agriculture production aimed the smaller producer and the input costs decrease
