The influence of crop production and socioeconomic factors on seasonal household dietary diversity in Burkina Faso
This study uses data from the nationally representative 2014 Burkina Faso Continuous Multisectoral Survey
Abstract
Households in low-income settings are vulnerable to seasonal changes in dietary diversity because of fluctuations in food availability and access. The authors assessed seasonal differences in household dietary diversity in Burkina Faso, and determined the extent to which household socioeconomic status and crop production diversity modify changes in dietary diversity across seasons, using data from the nationally representative 2014 Burkina Faso Continuous Multisectoral Survey
