Factors related to poverty, food insecurity and coping strategies in marginalized municipalities of Puebla, Mexico. Pap. poblac [online]. 2019, vol.25, n.102, pp.189-217.  Epub 25-Nov-2020.

The aim of this research was to identify and explain the determinants of the condition of poverty and food insecurity of rural households in municipalities in the state of Puebla. The data was obtained through a demographic survey using a statistical cluster sampling design with reliability of 95 per cent and accuracy of 10 per cent. Data was analyzed using a logistic regression model. Significant variables (p ≤ 0.05) in explaining poverty are those that have long time and persistent effects, such as; education, asset ownership, livestock, agricultural land (more than five ha), nonagricultural employment, and productive credit. The variables that explain food insecurity seem to have short-term effects on access to food; welfare transfers, production for self-consumption, and remittances. The figures of poverty, food insecurity and the proportion of income for food, are slightly higher than the official in 2014.
