The objective of this essay is to analyze the effect of adopting agricultural innovations on household food security in Togo. The study relates to a sample of 11,898 households drawn from the Harmonized Household Living Conditions Survey (EHCVM, 2021). Several indicators are used, including the Food Consumption Score (FCS), the Household Dietary Diversity Score (HDDS), and a composite food security index. Econometric analyzes based on ordered probit, generalized ordered probit, and ordered logit models show that the adoption of innovations significantly improves food consumption and dietary diversity. However, the overall index reveals that more than half of households remain food insecure, and adoption may exert a short-term negative effect due to investment costs. These findings imply that the diffusion of innovations must be supported by complementary policies, such as social protection mechanisms, women's inclusion, land tenure security, and improved market access. The study shows that agricultural innovations are a necessary but insufficient condition for achieving sustainable and equitable food security.
