The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has decimated the lives and livelihoods of people worldwide. The impact of COVID-19 has been especially devastating for low-income families in rural areas of India. Soon after the nationwide lockdown was announced, food insecurity became pervasive in rural areas, as many families relied on daily wage work to fund necessities. By providing cash transfers and additional foodgrains, Indian policymakers acted swiftly to reduce the financial impact on family income and consumption. This paper investigates the factors affecting rural families' participation in the cash transfer program and the effect of government cash transfers on food insecurity. Results indicate that India's government cash transfer program decreased moderate food insecurity by 2.4% and severe food insecurity by about 0.92% [EconLit Citations: O12, I31, I32, I38].
2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行已严重影响全球人民的生活和生计。COVID-19对印度农村地区的低收入家庭造成的影响尤为严重。在全国宣布封锁后不久，农村地区粮食不安全问题普遍存在，因为许多家庭依靠日薪工作来维持生活必需品。印度政策制定者迅速采取行动，通过提供现金转移支付和额外的粮食，以减少对家庭收入和消费的经济影响。本文研究了影响农村家庭参与现金转移计划的因素以及政府现金转移对粮食不安全的影响。结果表明，印度的政府现金转移计划使中度粮食不安全状况降低了2.4%，严重粮食不安全状况降低了约0.92%[《经济文献索引》：O12、I31、I32、I38]。
