Abstract

Abstract: The objective of this work is to identify if artisanal fishing significantly influences compliance with food safety in the Jaramijó canton. For which it will be quantitatively identified if the income received by the artisanal fishermen of the Jaramijó canton has allowed them to cover their food needs and, on the other hand, to verify if the families of artisanal fishermen of the Jaramijó canton have a nutritious diet. For which a logit probabilistic model was used. The results allow us to conclude that the statistically significant variables are: marital status, access to water, home ownership, age and household size. On the other hand, the variable that is not significant but is included in the model is Education. The results found constitute a support for the evaluation of multisectoral policies and their redesign in order to guarantee that Ecuadorians can access quality food that enables the fulfillment of citizen rights and therefore the socioeconomic development of the country.
