Abstract

This work assesses the food vulnerability in the municipalities of Nayarit using an index of food vulnerability that incorporates three factors: socio-economic development, food insecurity and food vulnerability. Results show that the municipality of Del Nayar was found at very high vulnerability level; Huajicori, Acaponeta, Rosamorada and Ruiz at high vulnerability level. On the other hand, the factors identified as drivers of vulnerability are deficient road structure, low economic activity and low schooling of the household head.
