This paper analyses the effects of NTFPs on food security in Burkina Faso.
The paper uses primary data randomly collected from 256 households. A Consolidated Approach Reporting Food Insecurity (CARI) was constructed as the dependent variable, and the ordered logistic model was used for regression.
The results show that short and medium marketing channels reduce household food insecurity.
The results suggest encouraging the development of short and medium marketing channels (generally local) by developing local markets, cooperatives and exchange platforms.
The novelty of this paper lies in the fact that it analyzes the link between NTFPs and food security through the types of NTFP marketing channels (short, medium and long).
