AB  - The objective of this article is to assess the impact of the adoption of new rice technologies on food security in Senegal. To achieve this objective, data from the Agricultural Policy Support Project (PAPA) for irrigated rice and the Directorate of Agricultural Analysis, Forecasting and Statistics (DAPSA) for upland rice in 2017 are used. The adoption of rice technologies is broken down into three levels of treatments, namely T1 (fertilizer), T2 (fertilizers and improved seeds), and T3 (fertilizers, improved seeds, and motorized equipment). Using the localized mean response (LARF) function of the instrumental variable (access), the results show that the adoption of T2 treatment has a positive and significant impact of 2.363 kg on the monthly rice consumption of farm households. However, T1 and T3 treatments have a negative impact on household rice consumption of 17.528 kg and 16.74 kg respectively.
