Abstract: This study examines the food insecurity situation and household poverty in Tahoua region (Niger). The investigations concerned 420 households distributed in 20 villages according to a reasoned sampling proportional to the demographic weight of 8 departments of the region. Household food insecurity results from inadequate cultivable land. Thus, poverty is mostly linked to poor access to basic social services such as education with 29% of school attendees and 53% of illiterates; Health coverage with 53.09% and rudimentary habitats consisting of hutches, straw huts, half or final materials built. Water infrastructure provides 13.5% of households with drinking water. Consequently, the Niger government must respond to reduce the vulnerability of populations to food insecurity and poverty by mobilizing land reserves, supporting pastoralism and non-agricultural activities, and controlling demography
