Extreme poverty (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

penury

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">extreme poverty</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for penury that I've seen before include "State of poverty or destitution" , "State of extreme poverty" , "Indigence, destitution" , "privation" , "Extreme poverty or indigence" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
