Evaluating Food Security among Rural Households in Lafia, Nassarawa State, Nigeria
- A. T. Yusuf; E. B. Sunday; F. J. Aremu; A. O. Folorunso
- Food security is a critical issue in Lafia, Nasarawa State, Nigeria, where rural households face significant challenges in accessing sufficient, safe, and nutritious food. This study aims to describe the socio-economic characteristics of rural households, assess their food security status, estimate the determinants of food security, identify factors militating against food security, and explore coping strategies against food insecurity. The findings indicate that low agricultural productivity, inadequate infrastructure, and adverse socio-economic conditions are major contributors to food insecurity. Households often rely on traditional farming practices, face poor soil quality, and have limited access to modern agricultural inputs. Climate variability exacerbates these challenges. Furthermore, poor road networks and transportation facilities impede the efficient movement of agricultural products, leading to significant post-harvest losses and reduced farmer incomes. High poverty and unemployment rates, coupled with limited access to education and healthcare, further entrench food insecurity. Households employ various coping strategies, including income diversification, dietary adjustments, and reliance on social networks. The study recommends enhancing agricultural productivity, improving infrastructure, addressing socio-economic issues, ensuring effective policy implementation, and promoting cooperative societies to improve food security in Lafia.
