Differences in the Prevalence of Severe Food Insecurity According to the FIES by Deciles of Expenditure in Nigeria—General Household Survey. a. Post-Planting Round (Relative to bottom decile, higher deciles have higher expenditure). b. Post-Harvest Round (Relative to bottom decile, higher deciles have higher expenditure)

Source: Authors’ analysis based on data from the 2018–2019 General Household Survey (GHS).

Note: Figure reproduces the estimates in fig. 2b, but using a separate household survey—the General Household Survey (GHS)—which captures the Food Insecurity Experience Scale in two separate rounds of the survey and expenditure. Using the GHS, the figure reports coefficient estimates of an ordinary least squares regression of severe food insecurity according the FIES on deciles of per capita household expenditure. The omitted category is an indicator for a household being in the lowest decile of expenditure. Standard errors are clustered by PSU; and the associated 95 percent confidence intervals are reported for each estimate.
