Definition
The food budget shortfall is an annualized approximation of need by people who are food insecure. The approximation is based on the average additional amount of money per week that a food-insecure person is likely to spend on just enough food to meet their needs. The estimate is then annualized by multiplying the estimate by 52 (weeks per year) and again by 7/12 (the average number of months in a year that food-insecure households experience food insecurity per the U.S. Department of Agriculture).
