Underfed country area overlooked (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hungry

'underfed' is the definition.

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for hungry that I've seen before include "Infertile" , "In want of food" , "Empty" , "Wanting fare" , "Famished" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
