| Summary, etc. | The problem of food security has always been a major problem challenge especially for a developing country like the Philippines. Ensuring the food security smallholder farmers is important because they are considered a vital factor for the development of our agricultural sector. This study used the Household Food Insecurity Access Scale (HFIAS) for the assessment of the household food security of the smallholder farmers. The outcome of the study states that there is a prevalence of food insecurity in Northern and Southern Mindanao. 44% were found to be food secure, 11% mildly food insecure, 11% moderately food insecure, and 34% severely food insecure. Among the five locations, Sto. Tomas, Lantapan, Dogis, Samal, and Claveria. Samal has the highest percentage of food insecure households with 70% while Sto. Tomas has the lowest food insecure households with 28%. The factors identified to affect the food insecurity score of the households were age, gender, household size, farmland area, income, beneficiary of social support program, receives food support from neighbors, under profit-sharing and grower under cooperative. The fsQCA analysis identified growership under cooperative as the most efficient in achieving food security. The qualitative analysis showed that most of the respondents? perception on food security focused on the food?s quality, safety and cleanliness. Most of the respondents perceived barriers to food security are individualistic factors such as laziness, lack of resourcefulness, and lack of hard work. The most common coping strategy used by the smallholder farmers in times of food shortage was borrowing money from relatives of neighbors. This study revealed that encouraging the smallholder farmers to practice growership under cooperative would improve their food security status. |
