This dataset presents data collected from the households' survey in Northern Nigeria to examine land tenure and property rights among smallholder rice farmers and the influence it has on household food security. Data collection was by personal interviews of adult members of the farmers' households, focusing on the households' socio-economics, United States Department of Agriculture'- 18 Household Food Security questions for households with children, land titling status and land tenure type on farmland cultivated during the 2016/17 farming season. The data were collected from 475 rice farmers selected by multistage sampling across 84 rice-growing communities, seven States and the three geopolitical zones in northern Nigeria. Household food security was assessed within the framework of the United States Department of Agriculture' HFS Survey Module. Land Tenure and Property Rights (LTPRs) assessment was in terms of the type (source) and registration of titles to farmlands. The hypothesis that guided the cross-sectional survey conducted to generate these data is that insecure land tenure and property rights are important drivers of food insecurity.
该数据集展示了从尼日利亚北部家庭调查中收集的数据，以研究小农户水稻种植者的土地保有权和产权及其对家庭粮食安全的影响。数据收集通过对农户成年成员进行个人访谈进行，重点关注家庭的社会经济状况、针对有子女家庭的美国农业部18个家庭粮食安全问题、土地所有权状况以及2016/17种植季节耕种农田的土地保有权类型。这些数据是从尼日利亚北部七个州、三个地缘政治区的84个水稻种植社区通过多阶段抽样选出的475名稻农那里收集的。家庭粮食安全是在美国农业部家庭粮食安全调查模块的框架内进行评估的。土地保有权和产权（LTPRs）评估依据的是农田所有权的类型（来源）和登记情况。指导此次横断面调查以生成这些数据的假设是，土地保有权和产权不安全是粮食不安全的重要驱动因素。
