Medium IMR: Northern SA and most of Asia, Central America and Northern/Southern Africa.

Undernourishment global patterns:
Low undernourishment: Distributed in relation to MEDCs, mostly found in North America and Western Europe plus Russia. Northern Africa regions including Libya and Egypt, southern South America e.g. Argentina and Uruguay and Australia/New Zealand.
Middle undernourishment: Distributed along the equator (tropical areas) with nations in central South America such as Peru and Brazil, North America including Mexico and Eastern Africa including Nigeria. Indonesia and Eastern Asia nations including China and Vietnam as well count with 5-19% of undernourished.
High undernourishment: Southern African Nations including the Congo and Central African Republic, Anomaly of Bolivia in South America and most of Central America and the Caribbean including Panama and Honduras. Other nations in South Asia including India and Pakistan, plus Myanmar and Mongolia.
Anomalies: Bolivia in South America, Libya in Africa, North Korea, the Balkans in Europe.
