Malnutrition is a major public health problem across Bangladesh. While, the potential of agriculture in improving people’s diets and thereby nutrition outcomes is understood, policy instruments or strategies in this direction have traditionally been uncoordinated because of insufficient evidence on the intersection between agriculture and nutrition. The LANSA (Leveraging Agriculture for Nutrition in South Asia) research programme tried to address this knowledge gap. LANSA activities in Bangladesh included mapping of stakeholder perceptions of sectoral policies and programmes, primary research, secondary data analysis, policy dialogue, capacity strengthening, research uptake and dissemination. This paper reviews the published outputs from LANSA research in Bangladesh, synthesizes the evidence generated, and attempts to identify the knowledge gaps that still exist and make suggestions for further research. Overall, the findings highlighted the need and importance of political commitment to address malnutrition, improving literacy about nutrition sensitive agriculture, strengthening institutional capacities and coordination, and improving the effective use of financial resources.
