Corruption, nepotism and other negative political behaviours indeed impact negatively in all aspects within a society. The agricultural production is the base of a prosperous country/state/city, because due to agricultural, the production of foodstuffs, energy, also the generation of several kinds of jobs is reflex of agriculture. So, negative actions can compromise all of this previous aspects.

Corruption widens the already yawning gap between the rich and the poor in many of the countries.

Malnutrition is a global public health problem more prevalent in developing countries than in developed countries. Indicators of malnutrition include household food security and life expectancy. Corruption might be one of socio-political problems fuelling malnutrition in developing countries. A study compared the influence of corruption on food security, live expectancy (LE) and population in developed and developing countries. Thirty two least corrupt countries (LCC) and most corrupt countries (MCC) representing developed and developing countries were systematically selected using Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI). Countries’ data on population, food security index (FSI) and LE scores were obtained from Global food security index (GFSI) and Population reference bureau.

The affects of corruption on agriculture in developing countries are seen most prominently in two areas: Firstly, in the distribution of agricultural products. Research has shown that the quantities of food being produced globally are sufficient to feed the world, however, international trade and intellectual property regulations disrupt the distribution of these products to the most vulnerable, often smallholder farmers and women in developing countries. Local farmers cannot obtain access to seeds of improved varieties and agricultural technology needed to increase yields, because the costs of these products are made higher by IP and trade agreements biased in favour of western monopolies. These agreements are signed with the consent of the governments of African countries.

Secondly, the contents of current trade, investment and IP laws are determined by big private businesses and countries with larger economies, without participation by smallholder farmers who they impact. The governments of those countries chose to compromise the food security interests of their citizens for the immediate short term benefit of payments from foreign corporations.

Corruption occurs at several levels and any attempt to curb its negative impacts will require multi-faceted action, covering substantive legal, procedural, social, economic and political factors that facilitate corruption in the agricultural sector.
