Abstract: Food insecurity is defined as "access by all people, at all times, to enough food for an active, healthy life." In a study with 54 rural households in rural Ecuador the relationship between household food security and household food stores was examined. In four communities participating in PLAN (Community Planning for Sustainable Livestock-based Forested Ecosystems) in the province of Quijos, a survey including an adapted US Food Security Survey Module and a household food shelf-inventory questionnaire was administered. A significant inverse correlation was found between the household food insecurity score and total number of food items present in the household at the time of the survey. As food insecurity increased the amount of household food supply decreased, affecting especially some food groups. Multiple regression analysis identified a significant relationship between the total number of foods, oils, vegetables, and processed products with food insecurity status. Mothers' educational level also correlated negatively with food insecurity level. As the number of years of school attendance increased the severity of food insecurity decreased. Community location was also associated with severity of food insecurity. Rasch modeling showed that the US Food Security Survey Module (FSSM) used in this study reflect the actual conceptual framework of food insecurity as a managed process where children are spared the effects of hunger even when it is already affecting adults. My findings show that the proposed adapted US Food Security Survey Module might be useful to monitor and evaluate interventions aiming an improvement in the quantity and the variety of food items.

This book draws attention to the livelihood and food security situation of women farmers, a topic largely neglected by academic studies. It elucidates in a detailed empirical examination, the impact of informal social institutions on food security and coping strategies of these households in the Meskan district of southern Ethiopia. The area is environmentally and socially challenged. The results develop an understanding of the gender dimension of food (in)security and present important implications for public policy.

Project Report from the year 2020 in the subject Sociology - Communication, grade: 85, Moi University, course: Community Development, language: English, abstract: This research proposal sought to investigate the factors contributing to household food insecurity in Twale area, Kenia, to establish the status of household food production, determine household food consumption patterns; establish household food sources, establish the status of household food insecurity and identify coping strategies among the households in the event of food shortage, and to identify the theoretical framework of food insecurity. Food insecurity is a major development problem that is caused by a myriad of factors in national, regional and local spheres of life. Several efforts have been put in place to alleviate food insecurity globally, nationally, regionally and also even locally. Despite these efforts the situation continue to prevail and sometimes even increase in contemporary human society. The research design to be employed in the study is cross-sectional research design which sought to obtain information that was to describe the existing status of household food insecurity and coping strategies among the households. A total of 15 households will be systematically sampled from the total population of 40 households in the area. Data will be collected by use of structured questionnaires.
