Violent conflict has harmed the livelihoods of individuals in conflict-prone communities around the world, particularly, those who rely on food crops and livestock production. Based on fieldwork in the Kwahu Afram Plains South District and the Atebubu-Amantin Municipality, the paper assesses the effects of farmer–herder conflicts on food security. The study’s findings show that the conflict has had a wide-ranging impact on food security, with both farmers and herders suffering incalculable consequences. Thus, just as crop farmers’ production is declining, so is nomadic herders’ cattle diminishing. The study proposes that relevant stakeholders work together to control the threat of farmer–herder conflict because the impact of the conflict extends beyond the communities directly affected.

人们有足够的食物和肉类吗？评估农牧民冲突对加纳粮食安全的影响

暴力冲突损害了世界各地易发生冲突社区的人们的生计，特别是那些依赖粮食作物和畜牧业生产的人们的生计。本文基于夸胡阿夫拉姆平原南区和阿特布布-阿曼廷市的实地调查，评估了农牧民冲突对粮食安全的影响。研究结果表明，冲突对粮食安全产生了广泛影响，农民和牧民都遭受了难以估量的后果。因此，正如种植作物的农民的产量正在下降一样，游牧民的牲畜也在减少。该研究建议相关利益攸关方共同努力控制农牧民冲突的威胁，因为冲突的影响超出了直接受影响的社区。
